2023:13 TPR 2023 Fire Protection Swedish National Assessment Report
Executive Summary The European Union’s Nuclear Safety Directive 2014/87/EURATOM (NSD) requires the member states to undertake topical peer reviews (TPR) every 6 years. The first topical peer review concerned Ageing management and started in 2017. The member states, acting through the European Nuclear Safety Regulators Group (ENSREG), decided that the topic for the second topical peer review...

2017:25 Evaluation of weld fatigue reduction in austenitic stainless steel pipe components
Background The performed investigation is a continuation of the work performed in SSM 2015:38 where fatigue tests were performed on pressurized welded austenitic stainless steel piping components. The specimens were subjected to a realistic variable amplitude loading with mainly reversed bending deformation and particular focus on high cycle fatigue. The previous fatigue results were quite...

2017:11 Extended Common Load Model: A tool for dependent failure modelling in highly redundant structures
Background The treatment of dependent failures is one of the most controversial subjects in reliability and risk analyses. The difficulties are specially underlined in the case of highly redundant systems, when the number of redundant components or trains exceeds four. The Common Load Model (CLM), originally defined in the 70’ies, differs from other CCF models, as it relies on a specific...

2026:03 Recent Research on electromagnetic fields and Health Risk, twentieth report from SSM’s Scientific Council on Electromagnetic Fields, 2025
SSM perspective Background The Swedish Radiation Safety Authority’s (SSM) Scientific Council on Electromagnetic Fields monitors current research on potential health risks in relation to exposure to electromagnetic fields and provides the authority with advice on assessing possible health risks. The Council gives guidance when the authority must give an opinion on policy matters when...

2026:05 Thermally Induced Fracture Slip in Crystalline Rock: Experimental and Numerical Studies and Safety Implications for Geological Disposal of Nuclear Wastes
SSM perspective Background and objective High level radioactive waste, such as spent nuclear fuel, will continue to generate heat after the final disposal in an underground repository. The decay heat results in thermal expansion of the repository rock mass which can induce deformation of the fracture system. Near-field effects may involve thermally induced slip of a fracture crossing a...

2026:04 3D Discrete Element Modelling of Fluid Injection Induced Fault Slip in Argillaceous Rock – Mt.Terri Fault Slip Experiment
SSM perspective Background and objective It is a well-known phenomenon that artificial increased in pore pressure at depth, due to subsurface fluid injection, can trigger earthquakes (Walsh and Zoback 2015, and references therein). Increased pore pressures at depth can also occur naturally, for instance due to the pressure changes imposed by a waxing and waning ice sheet. A geological...
