2020:16 Estimates ofJ-integral and COD for circumferential through wall cracks under global bending including the effect of pipe end restraint
SSM perspective Background Leak-before-break (LBB) piping assessments have shown that piping systems can withstand long through-wall cracks before pipe rupture is expected. This is somewhat because pipe ends are restrained. In LBB assessments analyses are often performed for a pipe segment uncoupled from the piping system, as pipe ends are assumed unrestrained. This assumption is conservative...

2021:28 Analysis of Radon Levels in Swedish Dwellings and Workplaces
SSM perspective Background Exposure to radon is considered the second most important cause of lung cancer next to smoking and is estimated to account for about 500 lung cancer cases per year in Sweden. For this reason, it is important to lower radon concentrations in indoor air, particularly where levels exceed the reference level 200 Bq/m³. In order to be able to update calculations on number...

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...
