• 2017:15 Radionuclide release rates associated with bounding cases featuring relatively early canister failures in a spent fuel repository

  Background In 2011 the Swedish Nuclear Fuel and Waste Management Co (SKB) submitted a license application for construction of a geological repository for spent nuclear fuel according to the KBS-3 method, comprising of copper canisters, bentonite buffer, backfill and surrounding crystalline bedrock. The post-closure safety assessment of the repository, SR-Site, has been reviewed by the Swedish...

• 2017:02 Slow strain rate testing of copper in sulfide rich chloride containing deoxygenated water at 90 °C

  Background Stress corrosion cracking (SCC) can occur in materials from the combined influence of tensile stress and a corrosive environment. It has previously been shown in the literature, that copper can be sensitive to SCC in the presence of sulfide containing water. Since both tensile...

• 2016:30 Measurement of Parameter Values for Predicting Corrosion Phenomena on Copper in Swedish HLNW Repositories

  Passivity breakdown and pitting on pure copper, the assumed material for the canisters for the isolation of high-level nuclear waste in Sweden, has been studied in simulated, sulphide- and chloride containing granitic rock groundwater and the data are interpreted in terms of the Point Defect Model (PDM). The results indicated that a sulphide barrier layer forms on the copper surface, and that...

• 2016:21 The effect of a glaciation on East Central Sweden: case studies on present glaciers and analyses of landform data

  The Swedish Radiation Safety Authority reviews and assesses applications for geological repositories for nuclear waste. When assessing the long term safety of the repositories it is important to consider possible future developments of climate and climate-related processes. Especially the next glaciation is important for the review and assessment for the long term safety of the spent nuclear...

• 2016:01 Literature Study on Sparse Channel Interpretation and Modeling

  Channelling has been observed in laboratory and field experiments at various scales. However, it is still an open research issue whether a sparse channel network is likely to be a better model than the fracture network model for representing the flow system in fractured rocks. The present report presents a literature study to bring together information useful for addressing this issue.

• 2015:25 Design Guide for Nuclear Civil Structures (DNB)

  The Swedish Radiation Safety Authority (SSM) and the Swedish licensees have previously in a jointly funded research project developed a design guide for civil structures at Swedish nuclear facilities to be based on Eurocodes, DNB. The report was published in January 2014 as SSM Report 2014:06. To further improve DNB and to ensure that the fundamentals of the recommendations will be applied...

• 2014:30 Modelling Approaches to C-14 in Soil-Plant Systems and in Aquatic Environments

  Substantial expertise on carbon biogeochemistry already exists in the fields of plant physiology and aquatic ecology and therefore is it beneficial to draw on this to identify the important issues. A paper describing the BIOPROTA C-14 model inter-comparisons, and plans for the forward programme was published in Radiocarbon Journal. Further studies on C-14 (including modelling, model...

• 2014:20 An evaluation of high-temperature creep of zirconium alloys: data versus models

  In this report Dr Massih presents correlations for creep in different phases of zirconium alloys and also presents a general solution to the difficulty of accurately describing the material properties in phase transition for several zirconium alloys. Based upon superplasticity relations, models are adapted to fit with experimental data for materials in transition regions. The creep models are...

• 2013:28 Brine intrusion by upconing for a high-level nuclear waste repository at Forsmark. Scoping calculations

  The objective of this study is to evaluate the possibility of salt-water migration to the spent nuclear repository. This objective is motivated by the adverse impacts of water with too high salinity entering the repository and by the uncertainty of the relevant hydraulic and hydrogeochemical conditions at the Forsmark site at great depths. To analyse density dependent flow and salt transport...
