Structural performance of multi-metal component (MULTIMETAL)
Start date: Feb 1, 2012, End date: Jan 31, 2015,
In a nuclear power plant, a single metallic component may be fabricated from different materials. For example, RPV components are made from ferritic steel, whereas some of the connecting pipelines are fabricated from austenitic stainless steel. As a consequence different components often need to be connected by so-called dissimilar metal welds (DMW).Despite extensive research in Euratom Framework ...

Structural integrity for lifetime management – non-RPV components (STYLE)
Start date: Jan 1, 2010, End date: Dec 31, 2013,
"The overall objective of the project is to assess, optimise and develop the use of advanced tools for the structural integrity assessment of reactor coolant pressure boundary components (RCPB) relevant to ageing and life time management and to integrate the knowledge created in the project into mainstream nuclear industry assessment codes. Realistic failure models for some of the key components w ...

Development and Validation of an Automated Non-destructive Evaluation (NDE) Approach for Testing Welded Joints in Plastic Pipes (TestPEP)
Start date: Feb 1, 2010, End date: Apr 30, 2013,
Plastics pipes offer significant advantages over other materials such as cast iron, steel, copper and concrete, for the transportation of fluids such as natural gas, water, effluent and corrosive liquids. They do not corrode; have a longer predicted service life, leading to less frequent replacement; they are less expensive to install due to their light weight and flexibility; and have significant ...

MAN-MACHINE-ORGANISATION THROUGH INNOVATIVE ORIENTATIONS FOR NUCLEAR (MMOTION)
Start date: Jan 1, 2009, End date: Mar 31, 2011,
MMOTION is a support action answering the call EURATOM-Fission-2007-2.1.4 targeting a better understanding of Man-Machine-Organization in the operation of nuclear installations. The objective of MMOTION is to analyse the current situation and the future trends concerning MMO and safety related aspects, and to propose an European research road map for the period 2010-2015 to comprehensively addres ...
