2016:16 Technical Note, Possible influence from stray currents from high voltage DC power transmission on copper canisters
Main Review Phase Introduction As part of the Swedish Radiation Safety Authority’s (SSM) review of the Swedish Nuclear Fuel and Waste management company (SKB) license application for a final storage for spent nuclear fuel, SSM has asked for complementary information regarding the effect of stray currents from high voltage cables on copper corrosion (SSM 2012). SKB therefore has performed an...

2015:39 Technical Note, Granskning av KBS-3 avseende nukleär kriticitetssäkerhet
SKB (Svensk Kärnbränslehantering AB) ansökte 2011 om svenska regeringens tillstånd för en föreslagen lösning, här benämnd KBS-3, för slutförvaring av använt kärnbränsle från svenska kärnkraftverk och en del mindre kvantiteter av annat fissilt material. SKB har senare tagit fram uppdaterad och tilläggsdokumentation...

2016:12 SSM’s external experts’ reviews of SKB’s safety assessment SR-PSU – engineered barriers, engineering geology and chemical inventory
Background The Swedish Radiation Safety Authority (SSM) received an application for the expansion of SKB's final repository for low and intermediate level waste at Forsmark (SFR) on the 19 December 2014. SSM is tasked with the review of the application and will issue a statement to the government who will decide on the matter. An important part of the application is SKB's assessment of...

2016:01 Literature Study on Sparse Channel Interpretation and Modeling
Channelling has been observed in laboratory and field experiments at various scales. However, it is still an open research issue whether a sparse channel network is likely to be a better model than the fracture network model for representing the flow system in fractured rocks. The present report presents a literature study to bring together information useful for addressing this issue.

2014:54 Technical Note, Further Modelling Comparison of Simple Reference Biosphere Models with the LDF Modelling Approach – Main Review Phase
This Technical Note describes further use of simple reference biosphere models for SSM’s review of the Landscape Dose Factor (LDF) approach adopted by SKB in the SR‑Site safety assessment for the proposed final disposal of spent nuclear fuel at the Forsmark site. Simple biosphere models for the Forsmark site under temperate climate conditions were previously developed for SSM’s review and are...

2014:58 Technical Note, Rock Mechanics - Assessing probability and extent of blind faults and fault-end growth around the KBS-3 repository at Forsmark – Main Review Phase
To get a general understanding of the stability conditions of the fault and deformation zone inventory at Forsmark a reactivation potential analysis was carried out. At present-day stress conditions the deformation zones are stable and show no large deformations or detected seismicity. Any changes in stress, and in particular increase of differential stress on deformation zones, might cause...

2015:06 Technical Note, Feasibility of Backfilling Deposition Tunnels
SKB has been conducting an appropriate scientific and technical programme of research and development work to investigate the many processes that may affect the choice of backfill materials, the practicali- ties of backfill emplacement, and the properties of the emplaced backfill that may affect long-term radiological safety. On the basis of this re- search and development work SKB has outlined...

2015:05 Technical Note, Review of uncertainty propagation and sensitivity analysis in SR-Site Main Review Phase
The review assignment SSM2014-2060 “Review of uncertainty and sensi- tivity analysis in SR-Site” addressed three issues: Adequacy of the methods adopted by SKB for conducting sensitivity analyses Approach for use of conservative and best-estimate parameter values Propagation of uncertainty for the corrosion scenario Adequacy of the methods for sensitivity analyses: The sensitivity analyses...
