The objective of the CSNI ASCET activity is to make general recommendations for ageing management of concrete nuclear facilities taking into account the effect of concrete pathologies on structural d...
The ICDE project allows multiple countries to collaborate and exchange CCF data to enhance the quality of risk analyses, which include CCF modelling. Because CCF events are typically rare, most count...
Increasingly engineers are confronted with the need to perform predictive structural assessment based on limited or incomplete data set. This may include damage up to failure assessment (in the conte...
The mission of the Nuclear Energy Agency (NEA) Committee on the Safety of Nuclear Installations (CSNI) Working Group on Risk Assessment (WGRISK) is to advance understanding of probabilistic safety as...
The number of ageing nuclear power plants (NPPs) is increasing in NEA member countries. Accordingly, maintenance programmes, in-service inspection and testing of structures, systems and components im...
This is a summary report by the Hydrogen Mitigation Experiments for Reactor Safety (HYMERES) project on the PANDA and MISTRA experiments.
Phase 1 of the Project, between 2013 and 2016, focused on imp...
The Metallic Component Margins under High Seismic Loads (MECOS) Project is an international programme organised under an initiative of the NEA. The main objective of the MECOS Project is to quantify ...
This report documents a study performed on a set of common-cause failure (CCF) events of Emergency Diesel Generators (EDG) at nuclear power plants. In May 2000, the ICDE Project published a report su...
The brochure provides background information about the NEA.
