Abstract

UNF-ST&DARDS capabilities have been recently expanded to include automated radiation source term calculations and dose rate analyses of as-loaded transportation casks. This unique capability determines realistic dose rate values based on actual canister UNF contents that may be used in radiation dose assessments to demonstrate safe transportation of commercial UNF.
