2020:04 Recent Research on EMF and Health Risk, Fourteenth report from SSM’s Scientific Council on Electromagnetic Fields, 2019
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...

2020:02 Models for axial gas flow and mixing in LWR fuel rods
SSM perspective Background Fission gases inside a fuel rod plays an important role in the behaviour of the fuel, both during normal operation and during events and accidents. Fission gases are released from inside the fuel pellets to the gap between the pellet and the cladding tube and then flow to the plenum volume at the top of the fuel rod. In high burnup fuel, this axial flow to the...

2020:01 Sulphide-induced stress corrosion cracking and hydrogen absorption incopper exposed to sulphide and chloride containing deoxygenated water at 90°C
SSM perspektiv Bakgrund Den metod som den svenska kärnkraftsindustrin planerar att tillämpa för att slutförvara använt kärnbränsle kallas för KBS-3 och bygger på tre skyddsbarriärer: kopparkapslar, bentonitbuffert och det svenska urberget. I den aktuella KBS-3-utformningen kommer det använda kärnbränslet att placeras i en insats...

2019:26 Analysis of trends in brain tumour incidence in Sweden
SSM perspective Background In the past few years, a discussion has been ongoing in both the research community and the media as to whether exposure to radiowaves from the use of mobile phones has an impact on the incidence of brain tumours in the general population. Ever since the introduction of mobile phones in the 1980s, their use has increased dramatically and has now spread to almost all...

2019:27 Effect of residual stress on ductile fracture at low primary loads – Numerical study
SSM perspective Background Present report is a continuation of earlier work reported in SSM2009:27 regarding an analysis strategy for fracture assessment of defects in ductile material and SSM2011:19 on the influence from residual stresses on crack initiation and ductile crack growth at high primary loads. The Swedish procedure for safety assessment of components with defects is documented in...

2019:25 Maskulinitet, risk och säkerhet vid ett svenskt kärnkraftverk
SSM perspektiv Bakgrund Likt anställda vid ett järnverk, ett pappersbruk eller en oljeplattform omges även personalen vid ett kärnkraftverk av olika slags risker som hanteras genom ett mer eller mindre lyckosamt säkerhetsarbete. Kärnkraften är en högriskbransch och riskerna för de personer som arbetar inom den har inte enbart med reaktorn och den radioaktiva...

2019:23 Participation in the European Committee for Standardization's workshop regarding civil structures
SSM perspective Background During the period 2014-2018, a CEN1 workshop (Phase 2 Prospective Group 3 civil works) have been carried out. The aim of the workshop is to provide a base founded on the French standard in order to be able to establish a possible future European standard for the design of civil structures at nuclear power plants. The workshop has identied which additional...

2019:15 3D Thermo-Mechanical Coupled Modelling of Thermo-Seismic Response of a Fractured Rock Mass related to the Final Disposal of Spent Nuclear Fuel and Nuclear Waste in Hard Rock
SSM perspective Background When assessing the long-term safety of a repository for spent nuclear fuel it is important to consider future earthquakes. Previous studies by Yoon et al. (2014, SSM Report 2014:59) and (2016, SSM Report 2016:23) investigated the fracture responses due to heat and earthquakes at major deformation zones using a 2D thermo-mechanical coupled model that uses a Particle...
