The safety and integrity of casks for radioactive waste in accidental scenarios is analysed by BAM Federal institute tor Materials Research and Testing. An accidental scenario in German interim storage facilities is the drop from a crane during the handling operation. To reduce the mechanical loads to the cask a shock absorbing footing with high energy absorption capability is used in these areas. In order to analyse and evaluate such impact scenarios of casks, numerical simulations are performed. For a comprehensive simulation of an accidental scenario the behaviour of the damping concrete footing has to be taken into account as well and therefor a material model is needed. Material parameters under different loading conditions are the basis for a numerical model. For that reason a government funded research project (Kasparek, 2012) was conducted to characterise damping concrete under quasi-static as well as highly dynamic impact loading conditions. The performed tests include compression tests with and without lateral constraint small-scale and midscale penetration tests with different indenters, and finally a full-scale drop test onto a damping concrete footing.
A new dual purpose cask design was developed for the safe transport and interim storage of spent fuel elements of German research reactors. In the framework of the safety assessment within the licensing procedure the Bundesanstalt für Materialforschung und –prüfung (BAM) as competent authority performed a series of drop tests according to the IAEA-Regulations [1]. The package consists of a cylindrical thick-walled ductile cast iron cask body closed by a double lid system with metallic seals. A lid and bottom sided impact limiter consisting of a wood/steel construction limit the mechanical impact loading. The full-scale test specimen was equipped with a basket and assembled with dummy-fuel elements. The package and test specimen, respectively have a total mass of approximately 24 metric tons.
The mechanical test program included three 9m free drop tests, in horizontal, vertical and oblique cask orientation onto the lid system. Additionally, a 1m-puncture drop test followed the horizontal drop test to consider an IAEA-test sequence. The horizontal and vertical drop tests were performed at a temperature of minus 40°C. During the oblique drop test the upper impact limiter was heated to +80°C. The tests were conducted onto an unyielding target, fulfilling the requirements of the IAEA regulations [1].
The test specimen was considerably instrumented with strain gauges and accelerometers. Transient strains at selected locations of the inner and outer container walls, of the primary and secondary lid, as well as of the corresponding lid bolts were measured during the drop tests. Furthermore, decelerations in different locations at the cask body and the lids were measured. The complex geometrical deformation of the impact limiters due to the impact were determined by optical 3d- measurements using the projected fringe method in combination with multi-image photogrammetry. Before and after the drop tests the leakage rate of the lid system was determined by helium leakage testing.
The experimental results contribute to the evaluation of the package response to mechanical tests, demonstrating safety under normal and accident conditions of transport. Especially to the verification of the dynamic finiteelement model of the package used in the package design safety report [2]. The paper describes the performance of the drop tests, selected test results focusing on the lid screws and the cask body and the deformation of the impact limiters as well as impact kinematics, respectively.

In the framework of the safety assessment within the package approval procedure the Bundesanstalt für Materialforschung und –prüfung (BAM) as competent authority performed a series of drop tests according with the IAEA Transport Regulations.

Damaged spent nuclear fuel (DSNF) can be loaded in German dual-purpose casks (DPC) for transport and interim storage. Encapsulations are needed to guarantee a safe handling and a tight closure, separated from the package enclosure. These encapsulations shall be durable and leak-tight for a long storage period, because they are usually not accessible within periodical inspections of the DPC. Due to the general design of DPCs for standard fuel assemblies, specific requirements have to be considered for the design of encapsulations for DSNF to ensure the loading in existing package designs. Especially the primary lid system of a DPC is designed for maximum loads due to the internal impact of the content during drop test conditions. The main difference of encapsulations for damaged spent nuclear fuel is that they have usually a much higher stiffness than standard fuel assemblies. Therefore the design of an internal shock absorber, e.g. at the head of an encapsulation is required to reduce mechanical loads to the primary lid system during impacts.
BAM as part of the German competent authority system is responsible for the safety assessment of the mechanical and thermal package design, the release of radioactive material and the quality assurance of package manufacturing and operation. Concerning the mechanical design of the encapsulation BAM was involved in the comprehensive assessment procedure during the package design approval process. An internal shock absorber was developed by the package designer with numerical analyses and experimental drop tests. Experimental drop tests are needed to cover limiting parameters regarding, e.g. temperature and wall thickness of the shock absorbing element to enable a detailed specification of the whole load-deformation behavior of the encapsulation shock absorber.
The paper gives an overview of the assessment work by BAM and points out the main findings which are relevant for an acceptable design of internal shock absorbers. The physical drop tests were planned on the basis of pre-investigations of the applicant concerning shape, dimension and material properties. In advance of the final drop tests the possible internal impact behavior had to be analyzed and the setup of the test facility had to be validated. The planning, performance and evaluation of the final drop tests were witnessed and assessed by BAM. In conclusion it could be approved that the German encapsulation system for damaged spent nuclear fuel with shock absorbing components can be handled similar to standard fuel assemblies in existing package designs.
BAM acts as authority and for service in safety assessment of packages for transport and storage of radioactive materials. We offer extensive test capabilities and application of analytical methods for design verification and simulation for all types of packages for the transport and storage of radioactive materials according with the international IAEA Regulations for the safe transport and for national storage acceptance criteria. BAM operates several test facilities for drop and stacking testing, leak testing and thermal testing. The large drop test tower allows dropping full-scale specimens up to 200,000 kg in any drop orientation as requested. The comprehensive test facilities combined with long-term experience, newest equipment and measurement devices according to the latest state-of-the-art technology ensures realisation of complex test campaigns for package safety evaluation.
Beyond that, non-destructive and destructive material test devices and experts are available. Equipment and application of all kinds of typical measurement categories can be offered for testing campaigns.
In recent years we performed testing of full-scale type B package models with complex handling and preparation procedures. The results were contributed for different package design approval procedures. Type A packages mainly designed for medical related transport purposes, were continuously tested according to the transport regulations over recent years as well. Moreover, we work on research topics with relevance to package safety. The mechanical behaviour of lid closure systems under transport and storage conditions and the thermal behaviour of impact limiters were recently of special importance for the assessment competencies of BAM and were investigated under use of our test facilities.
The paper describes the test facilities and capabilities for package design safety evaluation at BAM and shows examples from our recent work.
Im Zuge des Forschungsvorhabens ENREA (Entwicklung rechnerischer Analysemethoden für stoßdämpfende Strukturen beim Anprall oder Absturz von Abfallgebinden) führt die BAM systematische Untersuchungen an stoßdämpfenden Werkstoffen, unter anderem an Fichtenholz, durch. Zweck der mit diesen Untersuchungen erzeugten Datenbasis ist die Erstellung und Parametrierung eines Finite-Elemente- (FE-) Materialmodells, das die Modellierung holzgefüllter stoßdämpfender Bauteile von Transportbehältern für radioaktive Stoffe in der FE-Simulation ermöglichen soll.
Anhand von Ergebnissen aus der ersten Versuchsphase werden der Einfluss der Dehnrate und der Faserorientierung auf das Kraft-Verformungs-Verhalten von Fichtenholz diskutiert. Anschließend wird die rechnerische Modellierung von Fichtenholz diskutiert und die Anforderungen an ein Materialmodell werden erläutert.
Während des Transportes sind Behälter für hoch radioaktive Abfälle durch stoßdämpfende Bauteile vor Einwirkungen, die aus Unfallszenarien gemäß den IAEA Regularien resultieren können, weitestgehend geschützt. Nach dem Entfernen dieser Komponenten im Rahmen der Einlagerung ins Zwischenlager müssen Vorkehrungen getroffen sein, um Beanspruchungen der Behälter aus möglichen Handhabungsunfällen im Empfangsbereich zu reduzieren. Die Maßnahmen müssen vor allem darauf abzielen, die stoßdämpfenden Eigenschaften der potentiellen Aufprallflächen zu optimieren. Da Standardmaterialien für Fundamente nur ein geringes Energieabsorptionsvermögen aufweisen, wurde durch die Firma HOCHTIEF eine neuartige Betonmixtur entwickelt, bei der ein spezieller Leichtzuschlag zum Einsatz kommen. Zur Charakterisierung dieses sogenannten Dämpferbetons liegen Standardkennwerte vor sowie Messwerte aus Eindringversuchen, die zur Qualitätssicherung für jede Produktcharge durchgeführt werden. Das stoßdämpfende Potential des neuen Werkstoffs kann jedoch nur dann vollkommen ausgeschöpft werden, wenn die Energieabsorption in numerischen Simulationen der Behälterabstürze über die gesamte Belastungsdauer zuverlässig wiedergegeben wird. Für die Implementierung und Anpassung eines entsprechenden Materialmodelis in einem Finite Elemente (FE) Programm
sind Daten aus systematischen Druckversuchen mit Variation der relevanten Einflussgrößen erforderlich. An der BAM werden daher im Rahmen eines werkstoffübergreifenden Forschungsvorhabens zur Untersuchung von stoßdämpfenden Strukturen auch die Eigenschaften von Dämpferbeton experimentell untersucht und zugehörige numerische Methoden entwickelt. Der aktuelle Beitrag behandelt die Ergebnisse der ersten Projektphase, in der kubische Probekörper mit der Kantenlänge 100mm bei unterschiedlichen Lagerungsbedingungen statisch und dynamisch gestaucht wurden. In nachfolgenden Versuchen wird der Einfluß der Probengröße ermittelt sowie die Eignung der verwendeten Materialmodelle anhand realistischer Belastungssituationen validiert.
