• 2017:34 Human capability to cope with unexpected events

  Background In the light of the Fukushima accident, it stood clear that the challenge of the unexpected is of great importance to both regulators and licensees. For SSM, as for many other national regulators, there was a selfevident need to learn more about the capabilities and actions of people when the unexpected arises and conditions are potentially extreme. A task group was set up within...

• 2017:19 Numerical simulations of headed anchors break in reinforced and non-reinforced concrete structures, Phase 2

  Background In the design of anchorage equipment in concrete structures the beneficial effects of reinforcement are, in most cases, not considered. The American ASCI 349-06 code opens up for a more detailed analysis where the beneficial impact of reinforcement on anchor capacity can be taken into account. How this analysis can be done is, however, not explicitly described in the code. The...

• 2013:25 Anpassning av utbildning till följd av anläggningsförändringar

  Studien baseras på dokumentstudier och intervjuer av personer inom kärnkraftindustrin men även med motsvarande roller inom flyg, petrokemi och massaindustri. De intervjuade har nyckelroller inom simulatorträningen i respektive industri. Inom kärnkraften har personer från ett verk samt från verkens gemensamma utbildningsorganisation intervjuats. De undersökta...

• 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...

• 2013:04 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...

• 96:51 The Flooding Incident at the Ågesta Pressurized Heavy Water Nuclear Power Plant

  This report is a Master's thesis in Nuclear Reactor Engineering to be submitted to the SKi (Swedish Nuclear Power Inspectorate). The work has been performed at the Division of Nuclear Power Safety, KTH,Stockholm. It is an independent investigation of the consequences of the flooding incident at the Agesta HPWR, in Stockholm, Sweden, which occurred on the 1st of May 1969. The issue was raised...

• 2012:02 Evaluation of activity build-up experiments

  This project aims to understand how the water chemistry affects the activity build-up on surfaces in different systems in Swedish nuclear power plants, which in turn provides information on conditions required to reduce the radiation exposure to power plant staff. The study was done to obtain knowledge about water chemistry conditions preferred to minimize the activity build-up. A number of...

• 2008:09 The Generalised Ecosystem Modelling Approach in radiological assessment

  An independent modelling capability is required by SSI in order to evaluate dose assessments carried out in Sweden by, amongst others, SKB. The main focus is the evaluation of the long-term radiological safety of radioactive waste repositories for both spent fuel and low-level radioactive waste. To meet the requirement for an independent modelling tool for use in biosphere dose assessments,...

• 2008:07 Modelling of long term geochemical evolution and study of mechanical perturbation of bentonite buffer of a KBS-3 repository

  PART I: The Swedish Nuclear Fuel and Waste Management Co. (SKB) has recently completed a safety assessment project named SR-Can, related to the KBS-3 disposal concept. In this concept, the waste packages are surrounded by a buffer made of either MX-80 or Deponit CA-N bentonite. Interactions between the buffer and groundwater may modify the buffer composition and thus its containment...
