Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/891095· OSTI ID:891095
The objective of this calculation was to determine the structural response of multi-canister overpacks (MCO) and the 2-MCO/2-Defense High-Level Waste (DHLW) Waste Package (WP) subjected to tip-over onto an unyielding surface (US). The scope of this calculation was limited to reporting the calculation results in terms of maximum stress intensities. This calculation is associated with the waste package design and was performed by the Waste Package Design Section in accordance with the DOE SNF Analysis Plan for FY 2000.
