• 2015:25 Design Guide for Nuclear Civil Structures (DNB)

  The Swedish Radiation Safety Authority (SSM) and the Swedish licensees have previously in a jointly funded research project developed a design guide for civil structures at Swedish nuclear facilities to be based on Eurocodes, DNB. The report was published in January 2014 as SSM Report 2014:06. To further improve DNB and to ensure that the fundamentals of the recommendations will be applied...

• 2015:08 Technical Note, Rheological properties of the Bentonite Buffer

  Rheological properties for bentonite at high densities The properties of bentonite at high densities are extremely important and it appears as it has been to a certain extent well researched and understood, although further investigations regarding swelling of the bentonite would be welcome. What, however, seems to be missing is a comprehensive constitutive model capturing all the different...

• 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...

• 2015:22 Technical Note, Further modelling and sensitivity study using the GEMA-Site “alternative biosphere models” and review of material from SKB’s RFI response

  Denna rapport har upprättats som en del av SSM:s huvudgranskning av SKB:s säkerhetsanalys av den långsiktiga säkerheten för KBS-3 (SR-Site), en geologisk slutförvarsanläggning, som SKB planerar uppföra i Forsmark. Granskningen tar upp de metoder som används för dosberäkningar i SR-Site, speciellt vad gäller transporter, ackumulering och...

• 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: 1. Adequacy of the methods adopted by SKB for conducting sensitivity analyses 2. Approach for use of conservative and best-estimate parameter values 3. Propagation of uncertainty for the corrosion scenario Adequacy of the methods for sensitivity analyses: The sensitivity...

• 2015:01 Technical Note, Rock Mechanics - Thermal properties and thermal modelling of the rock in a repository of spent nuclear fuel at Forsmark – Main Review Phase

  In preparation for the review of SKB's license application for a disposal of spent nuclear fuel, SSM has conducted a series of modelling studies related to the design, construction and long-term safety of a repository at Forsmark. Several of the presented modelling works are related to the thermal evolution of the repository with time. This report extracts the results from independent SSM...
