À toutes les phases du cycle du combustible nucléaire, mais aussi lorsque l’on utilise des substances radioactives dans l’industrie, la recherche et en médecine, on produit des déchets radioactifs. L...

Radioactive waste is associated with all phases of the nuclear fuel cycle as well as the use of radioactive materials in medicine, research and industry. For the most hazardous and long-lived waste, ...

Confidence among both technical experts and the public in the safety of deep geologic repositories for radioactive waste is a key element in the successful development of the repositories. This repor...

Safety assessments of disposal sites for radioactive waste involve analyses of potential releases of radionuclides from the disposed waste and subsequent transport to the human environment. An import...

In 1994, a Working Group was set up under the PAAG on Integrated Performance Assessments of Deep Repositories (IPAG). The aim of the group is to provide a forum for informed discussion on performance...

L'évaluation de la sûreté à long terme des centres de stockage des déchets radioactifs nécessite notamment d’étudier les événements perturbateurs d’origine naturelle ou humaine et d’en évaluer les im...

The analysis of the long-term safety of radioactive waste disposal systems requires the use of mathematical models and scenarios that simulate repository behavior in response to future events. This r...
