2025:03 APRI-11 – Final Report
SSM perspective Background The Swedish Radiation Safety Authority together with the Swedish Power companies operating nuclear power reactors in Sweden have since early 1990’s provided financial support for severe accident research at KTH and Chalmers. The research was initiated almost directly after the installation of severe accident management system and strategy, as filtered containment...

2024:14 Residual stress distributions in nickel-based dissimilar metal pipe welds
SSM perspective This report concerns a study which has been conducted for the Swedish Radiation Safety Authority, SSM. The conclusions and viewpoints presented in the report are those of the author/authors and do not necessarily coincide with those of the SSM. Abstract It is common for nickel-base materials to be used as filler metals in the welding of dissimilar metal welds. Dissimilar metal...

2021:05 Cladding tube rupture under LOCA: Data and models for rupture opening size
SSM perspective Background The Swedish Radiation Safety Authority (SSM) follows the research on fuel performance closely. One aspect that is currently being studied in several research projects is the risk of release of fragmented fuel into the primary coolant in case of an accident. This risk depends on complex conditions were one is the possibility and size of a rupture of the fuel rod...

2017:16 Stress intensity factor solutions for circumferential cracks in cylindrical bars under axisymmetric loading and global bending
Background The case of a circumferential crack in a cylindrical bar has not been available in the ProSACC code. The need for such a geometry, especially considering nonlinear axisymmetric loading and global bending, has motivated the development of new stress intensity factor solutions, also known as K-solutions. These new K-solutions will be available in ISAAC, the successor to ProSACC.

Decommissioning
When the operator of a nuclear facility (i.e. the licence holder) is to decommission the facility, this must be done in a way that protects people and the environment from radioactivity in the facility. The Swedish Radiation Safety Authority issues regulations governing the planning and undertaking of dismantling activities; what’s more, the Authority performs checks to ensure that the...

Physical protection
The Swedish Radiation Safety Authority imposes requirements for the physical protection of nuclear facilities and transports, for example protection against attacks and thefts of nuclear material. We monitor and check that the nuclear power industry complies with these requirements. We also help to ensure interaction between man, technology and organisation in a way so that physical...
