2012:48 Technical Note, Use of Solubility Limits in the SR-Site Safety Assessment
In a radioactive waste disposal environment, in some potential situations (scenarios) a disposed canister containing spent fuel may be breached and the fuel may come into contact with groundwater. The concentration of a radioactive element such as uranium may rise to a level where the solution is saturated. No more of the radioactive element may dissolve and a precipitated solid may be formed.

2012:42 Technical Note, Initial review of physical properties and processes of the buffer and backfill – Installation and initial state
The technical note briefly summarises the proposed designs and functions of the buffer and backfill, and examines SKB’s progress in manufacturing, installing and testing its proposed solutions. In brief, the review suggests that there are some procedural and practical engineering aspects (e.g., quality assurance procedures, backfilling rates) and several physical processes to do with the...

2015:53 Ductile tearing – Micromechanical analyses and experimental study
In this report, the project "Ductile Tearing-Micromechanical analyses and experimental study" is presented. In the project, numerical cell modeling has been conducted using the shear modified Gurson model proposed by Nahshon and Hutchinson to evaluate its capability in predicting the effect of residual stresses. Experimental work has also been conducted for material characterization.
