2002:15 Regulator’s Workshop on The Role of Future Society and Biosphere in Demonstrating Compliance with High-Level Radioactive Waste Disposal Standards and Regulations
This report summarizes the proceedings of a workshop, co-sponsored by the U.S. Environ-mental Protection Agency (USEPA) and the Swedish Radiation Protection Authority (SSI), held September 11–13, 2001 in Stockholm, Sweden. The invitations to participate in the Workshop were primarily extended to authorities in countries with major nuclear waste programs involving geological disposal and using...

2001:22 Work in Support of Biosphere Assessments for Solid Radioactive Waste Disposal. 2. Biosphere FEP List and Biosphere Modelling
In order to assist SSI in its reappraisal of the SFR safety case, QuantiSci has been appointed to develop a systematic framework within which to conduct the review of SKB’s post-closure performance assessment (PA). The biosphere FEP list presented here was developed for use as reference material in conducting the review. SSI wishes to develop an independent PA capability for a time-dependent...

2020:15e Protective Actions in Nuclear or Radiological Emergencies - Planning Basis for Events in Emergency Preparedness Category IV
In this report, the Swedish Radiation Safety Authority (SSM) presents planning basis for protective actions in the event of nuclear or radiological emergencies in connection with activities and acts in emergency preparedness category IV. Activities and acts encompass events in activities with ionizing radiation that are not conducted in a specifically defined location as well as antagonistic...

2021:04 Calibration of models for cladding tube high-temperature creep and rupture in the FRAPTRAN-QT-1.5 program
SSM perspective Background In Swedish Light Water Reactors (LWR), stress corrosion cracking of reactor components and welds occurs from time to time. As the nuclear power plants are ageing, it is essential to study and further understand the mechanism for environmentally induced sensitization. Natural cracking is a phenomenon that is difficult to predict and very hard to study since it occurs...

2021:20 Effects of additives on UO2 fuel behavior: expanded edition
SSM perspective Background The Swedish Radiation Safety Authority (SSM) follows the development of nuclear fuel closely. Fuel with additives like chromia and gadolinia is used in Swedish reactors and fuel with even better thermal and mechanical properties is under development. This project is an in-depth study of data and models regarding the impact of additives on the properties of uranium...

2021:13 SSM’s external experts’ review of SKB’s safety evaluation SE-SFL
SSM perspective Background In Sweden long-lived low- and intermediate level radioactive waste is planned to be disposed in a repository (SFL) in the Swedish crystalline rock at a depth around 500 m. The waste contains mainly the long-lived wastes from the operation and decommissioning of the Swedish nuclear reactor plants, as well as the long-lived wastes from early research in the Swedish...

2022:04 Warm Pre-Stressing mechanisms
SSM perspective Background Swedish nuclear power plants (NPP) were originally designed and analyzed with an assumed operating period of approximately 40 years. As Swedish NPPs reach their original technical design life the safety of the additional operating time has to be verified. With increased operating time, the shift in the fracture toughness curve of the reactor pressure vessel (RPV)...
