  • 2011:06 Reliability Data Handbook for Piping Components in Nordic Nuclear Power Plants – R Book, Phase 2

    The Nordic PSA Group (NPSAG) has undertaken to develop a piping reliability parameter handbook for use in risk-informed applications that involve the consideration of structural integrity of piping systems. The scope of the handbook is to establish high quality reliability parameters that account for the Nordic and worldwide service experience with safety-related and non-safety-related piping...

  • 2011:05 Overview and Evaluation of the NESC Projects for Fracture Assessments of Nuclear Components

    The Network for Evaluation of Structural Components (NESC) was started in 1993 and since then six different projects have been carried out. A seventh NESC-project is still in progress. The overall objective of these projects has been to study the reliability of the entire process of structural integrity assessment within an international framework. The network is coordinated by the European...

  • 2010:22 Research and Development Program in Reactor Diagnostics and Monitoring with Neutron Noise Methods, Stage 16

    This report constitutes Stage 16 of a long-term research and development program concerning the development of diagnostics and monitoring methods for nuclear reactors. Results up to Stage 15 were reported in SKI and SSM reports, as listed below and in the Summary. The results have also been published in international journals and have been included in both licentiate- and doctor’s degrees.

  • 2014:21 Effects of additives on uranium dioxide fuel behavior

    This report will form a basis for the reviews that SSM does when the license holders applies for use of nuclear fuel with additives. The report is also intended as a reference to the models that Quantum Technologies AB has developed. The report and the models will be a valuable source of information for SSM and other parties when discussing the performance of doped fuel. Ali Massih SSM...

  • 2002:04 Qualification of Electrical Components in Nuclear Power Plants. Management of Ageing

    The work was finished and reported in Swedish in a limited publication 2000, Ingemansson Rapport H-14061-r-I. As the performed work was regarded to be of more general interest it is published again as a research report by the Swedish Nuclear Power Inspectorate. To be used in the international cooperation in nuclear safety it was also translated into English by the inspectorate, which is this...

  • 2017:27e Review of Swedish emergency planning zones and distances

    ESS research facility Summary On 22 October 2015, the Government of Sweden commissioned the Swedish Radiation Safety Authority (SSM) to, in consultation with the Swedish Civil Contingencies Agency (MSB), relevant county administrative boards and the other authorities and stakeholders concerned, perform a review of emergency planning zones and emergency planning distances applying to...

  • 1996:70 Risks from Nuclear Waste

    The first part of this review discusses the importance of risk. Man seems to have a longing for risks, like a part of the human nature. If risks are missing, they have to be invented, as needed parts in the emotional attraction of sports, amusement parks, traveling, etc.; this is the emotional part of risk. There is also a rational part of risk , in selecting such objects in ordinary life big...

  • 1995:70 Crack Characterisation for In-service

    During in-service inspection by non destructive testing the reliability is highly dependent on how the equipment is adjusted to the specific object and to the anticipated crack features. The crack feature and morphology vary widely between different cracking mechanisms and between material types, in which the cracks appear. The major objective of this study was to characterise a number of...

  • 2016:14 Radiological examinations of children: a study of method options

    The Swedish Radiation Safety Authority, SSM, decided in 2011 to investigate the justification of the use of diagnostic computed tomography (CT) for children up to fifteen years of age. The reason is the fact that CT is the main contributor to ionising radiation to the population. During the last decade, the annual number of CT examinations increased by 200%, and during the last 16 years, by...

  • 2008:05 International Expert Review of SR-Can: Safety Assessment Methodology - External review contribution in support of SSI's and SKI's review of SR-Can

    In 2006, SKB published a safety assessment (SR-Can) as part of its work to support a licence application for the construction of a final repository for spent nuclear fuel. The report represented the culmination of work conducted by SKB over several years, focusing on the goal of making the licence application in late 2009. Results from the SR-Can project have been documented in several...
