• 2014:07 Technical Note, Review of the geological mapping and geophysical measurement techniques for the determination of critical properties around deposition holes -Main Review Phase

  This Technical Note reports the findings of a detailed evaluation of the geological and geophysical methods proposed by SKB with respect to their ability, resolution, performance, reliability and robustness to measure the geomechanical parameters critical for determining deposition hole acceptability during repository operation. Addressed are specific questions focusing on the detection of...

• 2014:05 Technical Note, Assessment of flows to deposition holes – Main Review Phase

  SKB’s conceptual model for flow through the fractured rock at Forsmark is based on a division between highly fractured deformation zones (described in terms of deterministic geometry), and the more sparsely fractured rock (described in terms of statistical geometry). The model for the highly fractured deformation zones includes several assumptions that are not strongly supported by data,...

• 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...

• 2014:35 Technical Note, Modelling comparison of alternative biosphere models with LDF models and evaluation of selected parameter values used in the biosphere dose assessment - Main review phase

  This report has been prepared as part of the SSM’s Main Review Phase of SKB’s SR-Site performance assessment of the long-term safety of the KBS-3 geological disposal facility (GDF) proposed for construction at Forsmark. The review addresses the methodology employed in the dose assessment calculations of SR-Site; specifically issues of transport, accumulation and transfers of radionuclides in...

• 2014:47 Technical Note, Assessment of groundwater salinity evolution at repository depth and especially the impact of dilute water infiltration

  Groundwater compositions entering deposition holes in the repository will be progressively diluted over time because of expected changes of topographic and climatic conditions at Forsmark. This is a long-term safety issue because very dilute water could destabilise compacted bentonite and erode buffer, leading to advective movement of sulphide-containing water to the canister surface. SKB’s...

• 2014:43 Technical Note, Workshop on general corrosion of copper

  This report describes the outcome of the workshop organized by SSM on general corrosion of copper that was held in Stockholm on the 26-27th of August, 2013. The report summarizes the issues discussed and extracts the essential viewpoints that have been expressed. It should not be considered as a comprehensive record of all the discussions at the workshop and individual statements made by...

• 2014:40 Technical Note, Review of Performance Confirmation Programs and Potential Roles in SSM’s Current Review of SKB’s License Application – Main Review Phase

  The initial license application of a repository concept for disposal of radioactive waste is based on extensive site characterization, baseline monitoring, development of disposal designs and engineered barriers, test data on engineered barriers, and the integration of a series of models representing processes controlling the containment, release and migration of radionuclides from the...

• 2014:44 Technical Note, Independent evaluation of the number of critical canister positions in the KBS-3 repository at Forsmark – Main Review Phase

  Independent calculations were carried out to estimate Ncrit, the number of canisters in critical positions that can be expected in the proposed repository at Forsmark, based on statistical simulations of SKB's geological discrete-fracture network (Geo-DFN) models, and taking into account SKB's full-perimeter criterion (FPC) and extended full-perimeter criterion (EFPC) to screen out...

• 2014:39 Technical Note, “Wormhole” and Multiple Loss of Buffer Safety Function Scenarios

  This Technical Notes reviewed the issues that may cause canister corrosion other than the cases evaluated by SKB, which may belong to “What-if” canister corrosion scenarios. This Notes, in particular, addressed two potential canister corrosion scenarios: “wormhole” formation and loss of multiple buffer safety functions. The “wormhole” scenario was hypothesized during the SSM Workshop on...

• 2014:46 Technical Note, QA in SKB’s Groundwater Flow Modelling

  The general objective of the project is to provide review comments on SKB’s postclosure safety analysis, SR-Site, for the proposed repository at Forsmark. The specific objective is to get an understanding and an assessment of SKB’s quality assurance of the groundwater flow modelling in connection to SR-Site. The reliability of the results of the groundwater flow modelling depends inter alia...
