2016:21 The effect of a glaciation on East Central Sweden: case studies on present glaciers and analyses of landform data
The Swedish Radiation Safety Authority reviews and assesses applications for geological repositories for nuclear waste. When assessing the long term safety of the repositories it is important to consider possible future developments of climate and climate-related processes. Especially the next glaciation is important for the review and assessment for the long term safety of the spent nuclear...

2016:30 Measurement of Parameter Values for Predicting Corrosion Phenomena on Copper in Swedish HLNW Repositories
Passivity breakdown and pitting on pure copper, the assumed material for the canisters for the isolation of high-level nuclear waste in Sweden, has been studied in simulated, sulphide- and chloride containing granitic rock groundwater and the data are interpreted in terms of the Point Defect Model (PDM). The results indicated that a sulphide barrier layer forms on the copper surface, and that...

2024:02 Earthquake stationarity and distributed fault displacements, Forsmark repository site
SSM perspective Background and objective Large earthquakes occur predominantly along plate boundaries. Due to this, much of the research have been directed towards this tectonic setting. Also, the general lack of seismicity data in stable continental interiors, such as the Baltic Shield, have impeded estimations, as well as the understanding, of the seismic hazard in these tectonic settings.
