2017:09 Evaluation of the Swedish participation in the Nordic Nuclear Safety Research (NKS) collaboration
Background NKS is a Nordic collaboration promoting cooperation on nuclear safety and emergency preparedness research. The research program is primarily funded by Nordic radiation safety authorities and responsible ministries. The main purpose of NKS is to finance joint Nordic activities and initiatives, including seminars and workshops, technical reports, exercises and scientific articles.

2017:22 Effect of weld repairs on residual stresses in nickel base dissimilar metal welds
Background The driving force for crack growth near welds in nuclear application piping may arise from weld residual stresses. Experience from nondestructive examination show that cracks in dissimilar metal welds are often found near weld repairs. The repair welding may affect the residual stresses through e.g. increased tensile stresses and increased plastic straining on the surfaces of the...

2017:05 Robust structural verification of pressurized nuclear components subjected to ratcheting, part two – stress-strain curves for cyclic elastoplastic analysis.
Background Pressurized components in nuclear applications that are subjected to cyclic loading may exhibit progressive deformation, so called structural ratcheting. If the component is made out of a material that are deformation hardening, it may also exhibit material ratcheting. The combined effects of structural- and material ratcheting are not taken into account in the methods and material...

2017:12 Computational assessment of LOCA simulation tests on high burnup fuel rods in Halden and Studsvik
Background Loss of Coolant Accidents (LOCA) are among the most demanding accidents that can happen in a Light Water Reactor (LWR). The lack of cooling and the drop in pressure impose large stresses on the nuclear fuel which would increase the risk of fuel rod damage and the subsequent release of active material. But LOCA is also an accident that the nuclear power plant is designed to...

2017:32 COMRAD – Comprehensive investigation of the performance of computed and digital radiography
Background Within the industry, there has long been a need to replace the traditional X-ray film and its handling. These both for economic and environmental considerations. Both computed radiography and digital radiography offer many advantages over the traditional use of x-ray with film. However, the transition from film-based radiography requires in-depth knowledge of the relationship...

Microwave drying
Microwave drying is becoming more and more common for repairs of moisture and water damage in apartment buildings. It is much faster to dry moist flooring and walls made out of concrete by using microwaves than compared with ordinary construction fans. If microwaves in connection with microwave drying are used incorrectly, they may cause injury. This is why the Swedish Radiation Safety...

Heating using microwaves
Microwaves are radio waves used to generate heat, or for drying purposes. Microwave ovens are the most common source of microwaves in Swedish homes. The same technology used in microwave ovens is also applied when repairing moisture damage in concrete walls and floors. This is called 'microwave drying'.

Lasers
Laser is an intense light source used in various fields, including industrial material processing, research, measuring instruments, and medical and cosmetic treatments. Laser technology is also used in light shows at concerts and events. Powerful laser beams can be harmful to the eyes and skin and must be handled with caution.
