• 2011:33 Mathematical modelling of ultrasonic testing of components with defects close to a non-planar surface

  The report describes work that has been performed in order to model ultrasonic testing of components that contain a defect close to a non-planar surface. The studies have been performed in both 2D and 3D, and in 2D in both the anti-plane (SH) and the in-plane (P-SV). The results show that the presence of a non-planar back wall can reduce the detectability of defects close to the surface. The...

• 2011:25 Report from SSM’s scientific council on ionizing radiation within oncology, 2010

  In this report, three main areas have been highlighted: quality assurance (QA), quality control (QC) and late side-effects including the risk of radiation-induced secondary malignancies. These areas reflect the ongoing activities in leading international radiotherapy organisations. Specific attention is given to new technologies such as image-guided radiotherapy and intensity-modulated...

• 2010:44 Recent Research on EMF and Health Risk Seventh annual report from SSM:s Independent Expert Group on Electromagnetic Fields, 2010

  This year has seen the publication of the long awaited Interphone study looking at brain tumour risk in mobile phone users. However, the advent of these new data does not change the overall picture being that for up to about ten years of mobile phone use associations with brain tumour risk are unlikely. This conclusion is based on the collective of studies on mobile phone use and brain tumour...
