• 2012:52 Technical Note, Shear movement of near-field rock due to large earthquakes

  The review assignment concentrates on the possible impact of large earthquakes on the shear deformation of large fractures in the repository volume. For this purpose a general review of some of SKB‘s top-level reports was carried out. The reports draw a generally consistent and to a considerable extend comprehensive picture of the potential impact on the repository integrity in case of the...

• 2012:59 Technical Note, Initial review phase – Dose Assessment Methodology

  This report has been prepared as part of the Initial 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. In this respect the review has a natural focus upon biosphere modelling aspects of...

• 2012:46 Technical Note, Review of Landscape Models used in SR-Site

  As part of SSM’s Initial Review phase of SKB’s SR-Site safety assessment for the proposed final disposal of spent nuclear fuel at the Forsmark site, Quintessa was given the assignment to consider whether the landscape models and supporting data utilised by SKB are appropriate and fit for purpose. This Technical Note summarises the findings of Quintessa’s review. SKB’s approach to the...

• 2012:49 Hydrogeological characteristics of sites for low- and intermediate-level waste disposal

  The Forsmark area with its selected two sites and the Laxemar-Simpevarp area with its two sites are broadly similar in terms of lithology, rock ages, and tectonic histories. The two areas differ in terms of degree of deformation, and tectonic fabric. Some lithologic and tectonic differences are noticeable between the two sites in the Forsmark area and between the two sites in the...

• 2012:48 Technical Note, Use of Solubility Limits in the SR-Site Safety Assessment

  In a radioactive waste disposal environment, in some potential situations (scenarios) a disposed canister containing spent fuel may be breached and the fuel may come into contact with groundwater. The concentration of a radioactive element such as uranium may rise to a level where the solution is saturated. No more of the radioactive element may dissolve and a precipitated solid may be formed.

• 2012:69 Magnetfält i bostäder

  Studien har gjorts inom ramen för myndighetens miljöövervakningsprogram på området elektromagnetiska fält. Syftet med studien var att uppskatta magnetfältsnivåer i svenska bostäder. Lågfrekventa magnetfält från bland annat järnväg, kraftledningar, transformatorstationer, hushållsapparater och vagabonderande strömmar...

• 2012:20 Report from SSM’s scientific council on ionizing radiation within oncology, 2011

  Many cancer patients are treated in accordance with written guidelines or clinical trial protocols. The scientific council states that the radiotherapy part in those guidelines and protocols is less well specified than other therapies such as surgery and chemotherapy. This report identifies the key aspects of modern radiotherapy from international radiotherapy organisations and scientific...

• 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...

• 2012:66 Safety Leadership – the managerial art of balancing production pressure and safety

  A substantial part of the project has been dedicated to investigating and characterizing ‘safety leadership’, set in the context of literature on safety leadership, safety culture and safety management, in order to build a solid theoretical basis. The authors have delved deeply into the theories and conceptualizations of leadership and analysed this area in order to further the understanding...
