Baselining a spent nuclear fuel cask shielding model

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

Radiation dose analysis is essential for the safe handling, storage, transportation, and disposal of any spent nuclear fuel (SNF) cask. Nuclear facility designers and operators must meet the regulatory dose limits for workers and the general public mandated by the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission. They must also perform evaluations to support design and operational decisions to show that radiation doses are as low as reasonably achievable (ALARA).
