2012:07 Implementation of the Master Curve method in ProSACC
Cleavage fracture toughness data display normally large amount of statistical scatter in the transition region. The cleavage toughness data in this region is specimen size-dependent, and should be treated statistically rather than deterministically. The Master Curve (MC) methodology is a procedure for mechanical testing and statistical analysis of fracture toughness of ferritic steels in the...

2012:03 The IAEA Integrated Regulatory Review Service Mission to Sweden in February 2012
The Swedish Government decided on January 22, 2009 to mandate the Swedish Radiation Safety Authority, SSM, to apply for an international review of the Author-ity and its areas of supervision, an ‘IRRS’ (Integrated Regulatory Review Service) carried out by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). On February 25, 2009, SSM made a formal request to the IAEA for an IRRS in Sweden. The time...

2011:17 Structural Health Monitoring of Piping in Nuclear Power Plants – A Review of Efficiency of Existing Methods
SSM needs to acquire knowledge about new applied Non-Destructive Engineering (NDE) techniques and their efficiency. One area that is discussed more frequently is Structural Health Monitoring (SHM). SSM needs to investigate the international experiences of SHM from the nuclear industry. SSM also wants to have more information about the capabilities and the limitations of NDE methods The first...

2011:33 Mathematical modelling of ultrasonic testing of components with defects close to a non-planar surface
The report describes work that has been performed in order to model ultrasonic testing of components that contain a defect close to a non-planar surface. The studies have been performed in both 2D and 3D, and in 2D in both the anti-plane (SH) and the in-plane (P-SV). The results show that the presence of a non-planar back wall can reduce the detectability of defects close to the surface. The...

2012:27 Mental arbetsbelastning En fallstudie från projektorganisationen på ett svenskt kärnkraftverk
Den genomförda studien har fokuserat på den personal som arbetar inom projektorganisationen och är en intervjustudie för att kartlägga den mentala arbetsbelastningen och de risker som finns relaterade till denna. Vidare har studien endast omfattat ett svenskt kärnkraftverk, som därmed får illustrera de faktorer som kan bidra och bidrar till den mentala arbetsbelastningen...

2010:10 Översikt av nationell och internationell kravbild avseende brandskydd på kärnkraftverk och hur dessa tillämpas i svensk kärnkraftindustri
De nationella föreskrifterna gällande säkerhet på kärnkraftsanläggningar har historiskt behandlat brandskydd på en mycket övergripande nivå och den gällande kravbilden i tillståndshavares SAR, STF, ledningssystem har utvecklats under lång tid men på ett divergerande sätt. Vissa tillståndshavare har valt att följa internationella...

2010:35 Probabilistic Safety Goals for Nuclear Power Plants; Phases 2-4 / Final Report
Safety goals are defined in different ways in different countries and also used differently. Many countries are presently developing them in connection to the transfer to risk-informed regulation of both operating nuclear power plants (NPP) and new designs. However, it is far from self-evident how probabilistic safety criteria should be defined and used. On one hand, experience indicates that...

2010:16 Guidance to Risk-Informed Evaluation of Technical Specifications using PSA
No guidance documents for risk-informed analysis and assessment of changes in Limiting Conditions for Operation (LCO:s) in TS (Technical Specifications) have been available in the Nordic countries. In the U.S. several guidance documents, primarily developed by the owners groups for PWRs and BWRs, exist. Guidance for analysis of TS changes in this report generally follows the U.S. Regulatory...

2010:42 Using the EPRI Risk-Informed ISI Methodology on Piping Systems in Forsmark 3
In the SSM regulation SSMFS 2008:13, it is stated that the selection of locations for inspection of mechanical components shall be based upon the risk for core damage or the risk of release of radioactive substances. Both qualitative and quantitative measures of the relative risk are allowed to be used. So far only the PWRs in Sweden are using a quantitative procedure to evaluate the risk...
