2012:33 Technical Note, Review of Groundwater Chemistry in SKB’s Safety Assessment SR-Site
This initial review examined SKB’s characterization of groundwater chemistry at the Forsmark site and its evolution during long time periods under different possible climates in the future. The review considered whether the geochemical data provided by SKB are reasonable and sufficient and whether the methods used by SKB for projecting geochemical conditions into the future are appropriate.

2012:36 Technical Note, Documentation and Traceability of Data in SKB’s Safety Assessment SR-Site: Initial Review Phase
On 16th March 2011SKB applied for a licence to construct and operate a spent nuclear fuel encapsulation facility in Oskarshamn Municipality and a final repository for the encapsulated fuel at Forsmark in Östhammar Municipality. SKB’s SR-Site safety assessment for the spent fuel repository is currently being reviewed by the Swedish Radiation Safety Authority, SSM, and its external experts...

2012:34 Technical Note, Review of FEP Handling in the SR-Site Safety Assessment: Initial Review Phase
On 16th March 2011 the Swedish Nuclear Fuel and Waste Management Company, SKB, submitted applications for licences to construct a spent nuclear fuel encapsulation facility in Oskarshamn and a repository for final disposal of the encapsulated fuel in Forsmark. SKB’s applications are currently being reviewed by the Swedish Radiation Safety Authority, SSM, and the Land and Environmental Court in...

2012:37 Technical Note, Selective review of the hydrogeological aspects of SR-Site
This review of the hydrogeology is selective. It focuses on the measurement, interpretation and modelling of the potential repository host rock, that is the rock domain FFM01<-400m. It accepts as reasonably accurate the measurement and representation of the more transmissive parts of the hydrogeological system, particularly the near-surface 150m in the form presented by SKB. SKB have decided...

2015:18 Uranium Aerosol Characteristics at a Nuclear Fuel Manufacturing Site - Particle Size, Morphology and Chemical Composition
Vid alla kärntekniska verksamheter krävs att strålningsmiljön kontrolleras dels genom mätningar av ytors- och luftens kontamination i anläggningen och dels med persondosimetriverksamhet inkluderat helkroppsmätning. De olika metoder som används för att beräkna intecknad effektiv stråldos från kontinuerligt intag via inandning är förknippade...

2014:01 Cost Estimating for Decommissioning Nuclear Reactors in Sweden
In Sweden, decommissioning cost estimates are core inputs to the process of calculating licensee contributions to the Swedish national fund for radioactive waste management and decommissioning. Under the present system, the decommissioning cost estimates are produced by licensees every three years and formally submitted to the Swedish Radiation Safety Authority (SSM), which reviews the...

2014:27 Regulation applying to welding of pressure equipment – a comparative study
The PED was in force in November 1999 and has been mandatory in European Union Member States since May 2002. Most of the standards referred to in the PED are relatively new although some of the standards were adopted in the early 1990s. On the other hand, the ASME B&PV Code has been used for a long time now and is the result of several decades of industrial experiences. The authors present...

2015:27 APRI-8: Accident Phenomena of Risk Importance. En lägesrapport om forskningen inom området svåra haverier under åren 2012-2014
Kunskap om de fenomen som kan uppträda vid svåra haverier i en kärnkraftanläggning är en viktig förutsättning för att kunna förutse anläggningens beteende, för att kunna utforma rutiner och instruktioner för haverihantering, för beredskapsplaneringen samt för att få god kvalitet på haverianalyser och riskstudier. Sedan...

2014:28 Numerical simulation of ductile crack growth in residual stress fields
The study has shown on the capability of the cell model in capturing the effects on ductile tearing from limited pre-load levels and a residual stress field. Some of the conclusions are as follows: No distinctive influence on the material fracture toughness is observed from pre-loading (work hardening), both tensile and compressive, at room temperature of 1.5 or 3 % total strain. The cell...

2015:04 DiD-PSA: Development of a Framework for Evaluation of the Defence-in-Depth with PSA
The project declares an interpretation of the definitions of Defence in Depth given by IAEA which outline a framework to meet PSA. For each level of defence and combinations of levels, methods to give estimates from a PSA perspective are presented and discussed. One important result is the discussion of the basic definitions and the basis for defence-in-depth, as defined by IAEA, leading to...
