Non-destructive testing of concrete structures in nuclear applications
| 2016:245 | Allan Lion Kristensen
Non-destructive testing methods are vital to verify the integrity of the containment of a nuclear power plant.
The design of the Nordic nuclear power plants with a thick concrete structure with the liner cast in concrete poses a great challenge for non-destructive testing (NDT) methods.
A conclusion of the project is that the most promising NDT methods for nuclear applications are ground penetrating radar (GPR), high energy computed radiography (HECR) and multichannel analysis of surface waves (MASW).
