2015:15 Användning av låg- och höganrikat uran – en studie från ett icke-spridningsperspektiv
Höganrikat uran definieras som uran med en anrikning av 235U på minst 20 %. Att minska eller helt eliminera det civila användandet av hoöanrikat uran är ett viktigt led i internationellt icke-spridningsarbete. Till skillnad från plutonium är höganrikat uran inte en biprodukt utan framställs för ett specifikt ändamål. Detta innebär att...

2014:31 Degradering i betong och armering med avseende på bestrålning och korrosion
De primära egenskaperna för betongstrukturer i ett kärnkraftverk är dess strukturella styrka och möjlighet att avskärma joniserande strålning. Skade- och belastningsbilden kan komma att påverkas av genomförda och planerade effekthöjningar samt planerade driftsförlängningar av de svenska reaktorerna. Kunskap om huruvida betongen i kärnkraftverk...

2018:25 UO2 fuel oxidation and fission gas release
Background The Swedish Radiation Safety Authority (SSM) follows the research on fuel performance closely. One aspect that has been the main question of several research projects is the fragmentation of fuel pellets during abnormal heat up. In this project the oxidation of UO2 is scrutinized and its effect on pellet fragmentation, fission gas release and damage of fuel rods has been...

2015:11 Investigation of the Distribution of Phosphorus in Copper
Two copper alloys containing different amounts of phosphorus, 6 and 80 wtppm, respectively, have been investigated. The matrix of both alloys was analysed using atom probe tomography (APT). The matrix P concentration in the 80 wtppm P mate- rial was about the same as the bulk concentration and it was therefore concluded that the majority of the P atoms resides in the matrix. Grain boundaries...

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...

2015:07 TEM-lamella lift-out from the crack tip region of Alloy 600 for high resolution electron microscopy examination
This report contributes to the development of a method for high-quality TEM lamella preparation from crack tip regions of nuclear materials. A standard compact tension (CT) specimen of Alloy 600 previously tested for stress corrosion crack growth in simulated PWR primary water was used to demonstrate the benefit of the proposed method. This report describes the procedure for cutting the CT...

2014:21 Effects of additives on uranium dioxide fuel behavior
This report will form a basis for the reviews that SSM does when the license holders applies for use of nuclear fuel with additives. The report is also intended as a reference to the models that Quantum Technologies AB has developed. The report and the models will be a valuable source of information for SSM and other parties when discussing the performance of doped fuel. Ali Massih SSM...

2010:36 Guidance for the Definition and Application of Probabilistic Safety Criteria
Safety goals are defined in different ways in different countries and also used differently. Many countries are presently developing them in connection to the transfer to risk-informed regulation of both operating nuclear power plants (NPP) and new designs. However, it is far from self-evident how probabilistic safety criteria should be defined and used. On one hand, experience indicates that...

2010:47 Utveckling av programpaket för analys av termisk utmattning
I ett tidigare NESC-projekt (Network for Evaluating Structural Components – Thermal Fatigue) togs fram en Europeisk procedur för hantering av termisk utmattning. Den tidigare myndigheten Statens kärnkraftinspektion (SKI) var en av projektets finansiärer. Proceduren innehåller bl.a. utvärdering av en modell för analys av högcykelutmattning vid turbulent termisk...

2011:04 Evaluation of the Technical Basis for New Proposals of Fatigue Design of Nuclear Components
During the recent years fatigue analysis procedures for nuclear components have been investigated. The most common method so far has been the American code ASME III. The basis for the current design procedures in ASME III is quite old and has now been evaluated against modern data leading to the proposal of modified design curves. Also the effect of the environment has been the subject of...
