2008:18 Concerns when designing a safeguards approach for the back-end of the Swedish nuclear fuel cycle
Sweden has for many years collected the spent nuclear fuel originating from nuclear power plants. This fuel must at all times be kept under supervision to render a diversion impossible; this is of course due to the possibility to make weapons from the material. One idea is to keep the nuclear material in a repository deep under the ground; this is not only to keep the material safe from theft...

2013:08 Licensing of safety critical software for nuclear reactors
It is widely accepted that the assessment of software cannot be limited to verification and testing of the end product, i.e. the computer code. Other factors such as the quality of the processes and methods for specifying, designing and coding have an important impact on the implementation. Existing standards provide limited guidance on the regulatory and safety assessment of these factors.

2010:36 Guidance for the Definition and Application of Probabilistic Safety Criteria
Safety goals are defined in different ways in different countries and also used differently. Many countries are presently developing them in connection to the transfer to risk-informed regulation of both operating nuclear power plants (NPP) and new designs. However, it is far from self-evident how probabilistic safety criteria should be defined and used. On one hand, experience indicates that...

2011:16 Modelling of ultrasonic testing of cracks in cladding
During the last two decades, SSM has supported research to develop a model for the non-destructive test situation based on ultrasonic technique. Such a model is important in many ways, for example to supplement and plan experimental studies and to perform parametric studies in qualification situation. Modeling can be a useful tool when the inspection system shall be technically justified.

2013:24 Modelling of nuclear fuel cladding under loss-of-coolant accident conditions
We present a unified model for calculation of zirconium alloy fuel cladding rupture during a postulated loss-of-coolant accident in light water reactors. The model treats the Zr alloy solid-to-solid phase transformation kinetics, cladding creep deformation, oxidation and rupture as a function of temperature and time in an integrated fashion during the transient. The fuel cladding material...

2011:04 Evaluation of the Technical Basis for New Proposals of Fatigue Design of Nuclear Components
During the recent years fatigue analysis procedures for nuclear components have been investigated. The most common method so far has been the American code ASME III. The basis for the current design procedures in ASME III is quite old and has now been evaluated against modern data leading to the proposal of modified design curves. Also the effect of the environment has been the subject of...

2014:19 Evaluation of the Halden IFA-650 loss-of-coolant accident experiments 5, 6 and 7
The analytical tools, which are fuel rod computer codes, that Quantum Technologies AB use and develop, contain models of several of the phenomena that are acting on the nuclear fuel (cladding temperature, fission gas driven pressure, strain and stress in the cladding, rod rupture, etc.) and how the separate effects interact in the complex integrated manner. The codes are under constant...
