TY - CONF A1 - Orellana Pérez, Teresa A1 - Völzke, Holger A1 - Zencker, Uwe A1 - Wolff, Dietmar T1 - R&D initiatives at BAM concerning spent nuclear fuel integrity during long term storage N2 - The presentation provides an overview about the understanding of fuel cladding failure mechanisms dominated by hydride embrittlement during long term dry storage. A currently launched research project focuses on the development of a fracture mechanics approach to describe brittle failure of fuel cladding during long term interim storage (BRUZL)“. Finally, the BAM contribution to the current European Joint Program (EJP) on radioactive waste management is illustrated.
