2016:25 Licensing of safety critical software for nuclear reactors
It is widely accepted that the assessment of software cannot be limited to verification and testing of the end product, ie the computer code. Other factors such as the quality of the processes and methods for specifying, designing and coding have an important impact on the implementation. Existing standards provide limited guidance on the regulatory and safety assessment of these factors. An...

2018:13 Prestudy - Detectors for variance measurements
Background The understanding of radiation quality requires knowledge about the energy deposition pattern of ionizing radiation on which models for cellular and sub-cellular damage can be built. Experimental data is fundamental in this context for quality assurance and bench-marking of models and simulations. Direct measurements are also of practical importance for radiation quality...

2010:07 Indicators of safety culture – selection and utilization of leading safety performance indicators
Safety indicators play a role in providing information on organizational performance, motivating people to work on safety and increasing organizational potential for safety. The aim of this report is to provide an overview on leading safety indicators in the domain of nuclear safety. The report explains the distinction between lead and lag indicators and proposes a framework of three types of...

2013:29 Regulatory Approaches in Nuclear Power Supervision
The objective of this follow-up study was to support SSM in further understanding regulatory approaches and how they can be combined as part of effective strategies. The survey was intended to assist SSM in identifying current standards, experiences, and practices in the regulation of nuclear power plants. The results will also be valuable for the participating authorities as well as other...

2007:43 ProLBB - A Probabilistic Approach to LeakBefore Break Demonstration
The SKI regulation SKIFS 2004:2 allows for the use of Leak Before Break (LBB) as one way to provide assurance that adequate protection exists against the local dynamic consequences of a pipe break. The way to demonstrate that LBB prevails relies on a deterministic procedure for which a leakage crack is postulated in certain sections of the pipe based on the leak detection capability of the...

2008:30 A model for fission gas release from mixed oxide nuclear fuel
Nuclear fuel containing mixed oxide (MOX) pellets have been used since the 1960´s. MOX fuel pellets are made from a mixture of uranium and plutonium oxide. MOX allows the large quantities of fissile isotopes produced and remaining in spent nuclear fuel from light water reactors to be recycled. Producing MOX fuel can be seen as a method to more efficiently use the natural uranium since...
