  • 2007:09 DECOVALEX-THMC - Task C

    This report describes the results of Task C1 of the international DECOVALEX– THMC project devoted to Excavation Damage Zone (EDZ) in argillaceous rock at the Tournemire site in France. Task C of the project is aimed to understand the physical phenomena induced by excavation in the argillaceous rock. The task is to develop adequate numerical models for interpretation of observed damaged zones...

  • 2007:07 DECOVALEX-THMC Project - Task A

    This report presents the definition of the first phase, Task A-1, of the Task A of the international DECOVALEX project. The task is a working example of how interaction between THMC modelling and SA analysis could be performed. Starting with the technical definition of the Task A, the report presents the results of preliminary THM calculations with a purpose of an initial appreciation of the...

  • 2007:10 DECOVALEX-THMC - Task D

    The DECOVALEX project is an international cooperative project initiated by SKI, the Swedish Nuclear Power Inspectorate, with participation of about 10 international organizations. The name DECOVALEX stands for DEvelopment of COupled models and their VALidation against Experiments. The general goal of this project is to encourage multidisciplinary interactive and cooperative research on...

  • 2007:03 Variability and Uncertainties of Key Hydrochemical Parameters for SKB Sites

    An important part of the site investigations conducted by the Swedish Nuclear Fuel and Waste Management Company (SKB) is the characterisation of groundwater chemical conditions in the deep bedrock environment where a final repository for spent nuclear fuel is planned to be located. This work is currently in its final stages at the two candidate sites, Forsmark and Laxemar, and should be...

  • 2007:02 Stakeholder involvement in Swedish nuclear waste management

    This report have attempted to show the development of stakeholder involvement in the siting of a final repository for Sweden’s spent nuclear fuel as resembling something other than a straightforward linear process of improvement and refinement. Stakeholder involvement has developed, over the past 15 years or so, in something more like a patchwork of different shapes and forms. Some of the...

  • 2018:21 Research on Resaturation of Bentonite Buffer

    Background Resaturation processes in the bentonite buffer in a KBS-3 type repository for spent nuclear fuel are complicated and are often illustrated, analysed and modelled multi-disciplinarily as coupled thermal (T), hydrological (H) and mechanical (M) processes with multi-phase flow, elastoplastic evolution in a swelling porous medium. Previous THM-modelling showed that the re-saturation...

  • 2018:01 Monte Carlo patient-specific pre-treatment QA system for volumetric modulated arc therapy

    Background According to the Swedish Radiation Safety Authority's Regulations in Radiotherapy (SSMFS 2008:33) are Swedish clinics required to verify the individual dose to patients, prior the first time a new treatment is given. To fulfil this requirement, current clinics perform in-vivo dosimetry in three dimensional conformal radiation therapy (3DCRT), which means that the entrance of...

  • 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...
