• 2012:41 Technical Note, Hydrogeological conditions at the Forsmark site

  The hydrogeological site description and groundwater models employed in support of SR-Site, in many ways, represent advances in the state of the art for crystalline bedrock where groundwater moves mainly through fractures. Advanced methods are used for representing water-conducting natural features on scales from kilometres down to a meter, as well as excavated portions of the repository...

• 2012:38 Technical Note, Radiological effects on non-human biota - initial review

  The focus of this review was SKB’s assessment of radiological effects on non-human biota in SR-Site according to present regulations and guidance from SSM and it was conducted by Karolina Stark at the Department of Systems Ecology, Stockholm University. In short, the results from this review show that the completeness of the safety assessment can be questioned regarding considered...

• 2012:15 Technical Note, A review of the mechanical integrity of the canister

  An introductory review of SR-Site has been conducted with respect to the mechanical integrity of the canister. The review is focused on the copper canister and the nodular cast iron insert. Review results show that a number of loads and loading scenarios for the copper canister has not been analysed by SKB. The importance of sufficient creep ductility of the copper material and sufficient...

• 2012:30 Technical Note, Initial review of physical properties and processes of the buffer and backfill. THM and other physical processes

  The Swedish Radiation Safety Authority (SSM) reviews the Swedish Nuclear Fuel Company’s (SKB) applications under the Act on Nuclear Activities (SFS 1984:3) for the construction and operation of a repository for spent nuclear fuel and for an encapsulation facility. As part of the review, SSM commissions consultants to carry out work in order to obtain information on specific issues. The...

• 2012:25 Workshop on Seismology

  This report summarizes the issues discussed at the workshop and extracts the essential viewpoints that have been expressed. The report is not to consider as a comprehensive record of all the discussions at the workshop and individual statements made by workshop participants should be regarded as opinions rather than proven facts. This report includes, apart from the workshop synthesis, the...

• 2012:28 Technical Note, Initial review of chemical and erosional processes within the buffer and backfill – Geochemical processes

  This report consists of a Technical Note in SSM’s initial review phase of SKB’s safety analysis SR-Site. The aim of the initial review of issues concerning geochemical processes in buffer and backfill in a final repository is to make a broad illustration and review of SR-Site together with its subordinate references, as well as to identify potential needs for complementary information or...

• 2012:18 Technical Note, SR-Site Independent Modelling of Engineered Barrier Evolution and Coupled THMC: Contribution to the Initial Review Phase

  This review has focussed mainly on the modelling of the Engineered Barrier System (EBS) evolution, which includes coupled thermal, hydraulic, mechanical and chemical (THMC) processes. Additionally, the role of the EBS in the wider safety case was reviewed, including its treatment in scenarios and its representation in conceptual models since this provided the motivation for the modelling work...

• 2012:54 Technical Note, Initial Review Phase for SKB´s safety assessment SR-Site: Geological structures and deformation zones, from site investigation to safety assessment

  The site selected by the Swedish Nuclear Fuel and Management Co (SKB) for location of a deep geological repository, i.e. a storage for spent nuclear fuel at about 500 m depth in Precambrian metamorphosed rocks. The location of the site is Forsmark at the northern coast of Uppland and 122 km north of Stockholm. In geological terms Forsmark is located in the central part of the Fennoscandian...

• 2012:70 Process Parameters Affecting Inhomogeneity of Material Microstructure

  There’s been a tremendous change in the number, product types, locations, equipment, and manufacturing capabilities of stainless steel producers from the late 1960’s to present. This reconfiguration of the global steel industry occurred between the early 1970’s to the mid 1980’s and continues today. These changes have produced a loss in manufacturing flexibility, due to the inherent...

• 2012:50 Fatigue Margins for Austenitic Stainless Steels in ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code – A Literature Study

  Knowledge about the margins against fatigue failure in nuclear piping systems is essential. Therefore, the margins in the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code (section III) fatigue design procedure for austenitic steels, type 304/316, as applied to real components have been investigated in this literature study. It is concluded that the current knowledge about the margins in ASME for...
