• 2009:30 A Review of Evidence for Corrosion of Copper by water

  The planned spent nuclear fuel repository in Sweden relies on a copper cast iron canister as the primary engineered barrier. The corrosion behaviour of copper in the expected environment needs to be thoroughly understood as a basis for the post-closure safety analysis. It has been shown that corrosion may indeed be the primary canister degradation process during the utilised assessment period...

• 2009:27 Analysis Strategy for Fracture Assessment of Defects in Ductile Materials

  SSM has supported research for investigating the role of secondary stresses when fracture assessments are performed for cracked structures made of ductile materials. There are evidences that indicate that some secondary stresses, such as weld residual stresses, are not as important as primary stresses for estimating the safety margin against rupture (measured by the J-integral) for the type...

• 2009:24 UV-radiation induced disease – roles of UVA and UVB

  There is a large uncertainty concerning the impact of UVA and UVB radiation on the skin and eye. For example, UVA radiation used to be considered low risk since it was believed that DNA damage could only be caused by UVB radiation. However, recent studies show that UVA and UVB can give rise to similar DNA damages in human skin. Because of the potentially greater exposure to UVA while using...

• 2009:22 Alternative modelling of brittle structures in a sub-area of the SKB candidate area at Forsmark, eastern Sweden

  A reasonable understanding of the character of the bedrock hosting a deep geological repository, i.e. the natural barrier, is an important component in the safety assessment of the deep geological repository for spent nuclear fuel. The structures in the rock, together with the regional stress field, affect the mechanical stability of the bedrock and the ground water transport within the...

• 2009:21 The geological history of the Baltic Sea a review of the literature and investigation tools

  The bedrock in Sweden mainly comprises Proterozoic magmatic and metamorphic rocks older than a billion or one and a half billion years with few easily distinguished testimonies for the younger history. For construction of a geological repository for deposition of nuclear waste it is important to understand the late, brittle, geological events to be able to estimate its influence and...

• 2009:19 Review of SKB’s Quality Assurance Programme

  SKB is preparing a license application for the construction of a final repository for spent nuclear fuel in Sweden. This application will be supported by the safety assessment SR-Site for the post-closure phase. The assessment of long-term safety is based on a broad range of experimental results from laboratory scale, intermediate scale and up to full scale experiments. It is essential that...

• 2009:17 Effect of Welding Residual Stresses on Crack Opening Displacement and Crack-Tip Parameters

  Weld residual stresses 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 of these events is important in order to arrive at proper conclusions when assessing detected flaws, for inspection planning and for assessment of leak-before-break margins. The fracture mechanical treatment of weld...

• 2009:16 Influence of Hardening Model on Weld Residual Stress Distribution

  Weld residual stresses 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 of these events is important in order to arrive at proper conclusions when assessing detected flaws, for inspection planning and for assessment of leak-before-break margins. Therefore, it is very important to have...

• 2009:14 Review of Legislation and Regulatory Framework in Ukraine with Regard to Environmental Radiation Monitoring

  This report was written in the frames of the development cooperation project in Ukraine entitled “Environmental Radiation Monitoring”. 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. In 2006, the...
