• 2012:30 Technical Note, Initial review of physical properties and processes of the buffer and backfill. THM and other physical processes

  The Swedish Radiation Safety Authority (SSM) reviews the Swedish Nuclear Fuel Company’s (SKB) applications under the Act on Nuclear Activities (SFS 1984:3) for the construction and operation of a repository for spent nuclear fuel and for an encapsulation facility. As part of the review, SSM commissions consultants to carry out work in order to obtain information on specific issues. The...

• 2012:25 Workshop on Seismology

  This report summarizes the issues discussed at the workshop and extracts the essential viewpoints that have been expressed. The report is not to consider as a comprehensive record of all the discussions at the workshop and individual statements made by workshop participants should be regarded as opinions rather than proven facts. This report includes, apart from the workshop synthesis, the...

• 2012:28 Technical Note, Initial review of chemical and erosional processes within the buffer and backfill – Geochemical processes

  This report consists of a Technical Note in SSM’s initial review phase of SKB’s safety analysis SR-Site. The aim of the initial review of issues concerning geochemical processes in buffer and backfill in a final repository is to make a broad illustration and review of SR-Site together with its subordinate references, as well as to identify potential needs for complementary information or...

• 2012:08 Deterministic Assessment of Future Costs for Dismantling (FA)

  In this study a model for advanced deterministic cost calculation has been used to find a parametric value on the cost for dismantling of the FA-facility. The study gives good description of good practise to collect, test and utilise input data in a systematic way in order to make prudent cost estimates for any particular nuclear installation The Swedish Law stipulates that future expenses...

• 2012:70 Process Parameters Affecting Inhomogeneity of Material Microstructure

  There’s been a tremendous change in the number, product types, locations, equipment, and manufacturing capabilities of stainless steel producers from the late 1960’s to present. This reconfiguration of the global steel industry occurred between the early 1970’s to the mid 1980’s and continues today. These changes have produced a loss in manufacturing flexibility, due to the inherent...

• 2012:50 Fatigue Margins for Austenitic Stainless Steels in ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code – A Literature Study

  Knowledge about the margins against fatigue failure in nuclear piping systems is essential. Therefore, the margins in the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code (section III) fatigue design procedure for austenitic steels, type 304/316, as applied to real components have been investigated in this literature study. It is concluded that the current knowledge about the margins in ASME for...

• 2012:07 Implementation of the Master Curve method in ProSACC

  Cleavage fracture toughness data display normally large amount of statistical scatter in the transition region. The cleavage toughness data in this region is specimen size-dependent, and should be treated statistically rather than deterministically. The Master Curve (MC) methodology is a procedure for mechanical testing and statistical analysis of fracture toughness of ferritic steels in the...

• 2012:03 The IAEA Integrated Regulatory Review Service Mission to Sweden in February 2012

  The Swedish Government decided on January 22, 2009 to mandate the Swedish Radiation Safety Authority, SSM, to apply for an international review of the Author-ity and its areas of supervision, an ‘IRRS’ (Integrated Regulatory Review Service) carried out by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). On February 25, 2009, SSM made a formal request to the IAEA for an IRRS in Sweden. The time...
