• 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...

• 2013:24 Modelling of nuclear fuel cladding under loss-of-coolant accident conditions

  We present a unified model for calculation of zirconium alloy fuel cladding rupture during a postulated loss-of-coolant accident in light water reactors. The model treats the Zr alloy solid-to-solid phase transformation kinetics, cladding creep deformation, oxidation and rupture as a function of temperature and time in an integrated fashion during the transient. The fuel cladding material...

• 2013:10 Qualification of Electrical Equipment in Nuclear Power Plants - Management of ageing

  The purpose of this report is to describe programs and tools for assessment of accomplished and documented qualification with respect to ageing of electrical equipment and for development of complimentary ageing management programs. In addition to description of complete programs for management of ageing, tools for validation of the status with regard to ageing of installed (“old”) equipment...

• 2013:09 An Application of the Functional Resonance Analysis Method (FRAM) to Risk Assessment of Organisational Change

  The objective of this study was to demonstrate an alternative approach to risk assessment of organisational changes, based on the principles of resilience engineering. The approach in question was the Functional Resonance Analysis Method (FRAM). Whereas established approaches focus on risks coming from failure or malfunctioning of components, alone or in combination, resilience engineering...

• 2013:04 Research and Development Program in Reactor Diagnostics and Monitoring with Neutron Noise Methods, Stage 18

  The program executed in Stage 18 consists of the following three parts: Application of CoreSim with a two-dimensional model of vibrating fuel assemblies, for the calculation of ex-core detector noise throughout a fuel cycle; An investigation of the neutron noise, induced by propagating perturbations, in various thermal and fast reactor systems, in two-group theory; A consistent derivation of...

• 2013:01 Validation of Weld Residual Stress Modeling in the NRC International Round Robin Study

  Weld residual stresses (WRS) have a large influence on the behavior of cracks growing under normal operation loads and on the leakage flow from a through-wall crack. Accurate prediction on weld residual stresses is important to make proper decisions when cracks in weld joints are detected. During the latest years, there has been a strong development in both analytical procedures to...
