  • 2018:15 Review of Geochemical Data Utilisation in SR-Site Safety Assessment

    The Swedish Radiation Safety Authority (SSM) reviews and follows associated research related to the Swedish Nuclear Fuel Company’s (SKB) work with establishing a repository for spent nuclear fuel and an encapsulation facility.

  • 2018:08 Calculated radiological consequences of applying European clearance levels to scrap metal from the decommissioning of Swedish nuclear facilities

    Background Many practices involving radioactive substances generate materials with potential or known radioactive contamination. Clearance of materials means a decision that such materials can be released from regulatory control and used or disposed of without restrictions from a radiation protection point of view. According to regulations issued by the SSM, such decisions must be based on...

  • 2016:28 Fatigue fracture surface characterization and investigation

    Background In a previous study (SSM research report 2015:38) fatigue experiments were performed on welded austenitic stainless steel piping components. The fatigue experiments offer an opportunity to examine the obtained fatigue cracks with an optical microscope. Objective The present study performs a fractographical examination of the obtained fatigue cracks with the aim of determine where...

  • 2016:31 Measures and method characteristics for early evaluation of safe operation in nuclear power plant control room systems

    The Swedish Radiation Safety Authority’s (SSM) experience is that there is a need to develop evaluation methods in parallel with the development of control rooms in conjunction with construction modifications and other changes. This includes more indepth analysis of the methods used today. Another aspect is that conventional methods of evaluating control rooms and issues need to be...

  • 2016:04 Uncertainty assessment of the SCANAIR V_7_5 computer program in analyses of BWR reactivity initiated accidents

    In this work, we assess uncertainties that can be expected in computational analyses of boiling water reactor reactivity initiated accidents with the SCANAIR V_7_5 computer program. The work is intended to supplement a similar uncertainty assessment, focussed on pressurized water reactor accidents, which is currently being organized as an international benchmark exercise by the OECD Nuclear...

  • 2016:37 PARTRIDGE project: Review and evaluation of the probabilistic fracture mechanics code PRO-LOCA

    Background The Swedish Radiation Safety Authority (SSM) and the Swedish nuclear power plant owners have financed Inspecta Technology in Sweden to evaluate the PRO-LOCA code. It is a computer code, developed by Battelle in the USA, in which the leak- and rupture probabilities of piping in nuclear power plants are analysed. The pipe systems may contain the damage mechanisms fatigue and/or...

  • 2015:50 Assessment of structures subject to concrete pathologies (ASCET)

    Many Nuclear Power Plants around the world are at the moment approaching, or in, their Long Term Operation stage of their operational phase. In addition, several NPPs have recently been carrying out uprate and life extension projects and comprehensive maintenance work including the exchange of components important to safety, in order to extend their lifetime. As a result, ageing management...

  • 2015:38 Evaluation of fatigue in austenitic stainless steel pipe components

    Background Transferability of experimental results obtained for smooth test specimens under constant amplitude loading to realistic components subjected to variable amplitude loading is an important issue in the design against fatigue. There is a lack of experimental fatigue data for austenitic steel components and the present study is an important contribution to fill this gap. Objective The...

  • 2016:26 Ensemble for deterministic sampling with positive weights

    The aim of this project is to find a reliable method for determining an ensemble for Deterministic Sampling with only positive weights. This report is intended to work as a presentation of the project, as well as to work as a beginner’s guide to DS. In the report several methods for generating DS ensembles are presented, which can encode up to four moments and represent any kind of...

  • 2016:13 Spännarmerade betongkonstruktioner vid kärntekniska anläggningar

    Projektet omfattar en litteraturstudie och inventering av byggteknik, dimensionering, degradering och inspektionsmetoder för spännkabelsystem i reaktorinneslutningar och bassängkonstruktioner. Kunskap om spännkabelsystemen är av stor betydelse för bedömning av konstruktionernas täthet och uppfyllande av gällande säkerhetskrav. Patrick Anderson...
