Engineering has experienced a technological revolution, but the basic engineeringtechniques applied in safety and reliability engineering, created in a simpler, analog world, havechanged very little over the years. In this groundbreaking book, Nancy Leveson proposes a newapproach to safety--more suited to today's complex, sociotechnical, software-intensive world--basedon modern systems thinking…
This Safety Report provides guidance on the establishment and operation of calibration facilities for radiation monitoring instruments. It reflects the current internationally accepted principles and recommended practices in calibration procedures, taking account of the major changes and developments that have occurred over the past decade.

Outstanding advances have been achieved on Earthquake Geotechnical Engineering and Microzonation in the last decade mostly due to the increase in the recorded instrumental in-situ data and large number of case studies conducted in analyzing the observed effects during the recent major earthquakes. During the 15th International Conference on Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering held in Is…
This Safety Guide discusses the phenomena, both natural and human induced, that may cause floods or droughts at coastal and river sites, and gives an outline of the methods that can be used for, and the critical factors involved in, the evaluation of such events and of their associated effects. Possible combinations of two or more phenomena that can give rise to flooding at a site are also disc…
This code recommends how to evaluate the site related factors that are taken into account to ensure that the plant–site combination does not constitute an unacceptable risk. After defining the roles of the applicant and the regulatory body in site selection, evaluation and approval, general criteria are given for selecting proposed sites and assessing their suitability, for determining site r…
The systems which perform the vitai functions of monitoring and controlling systems and parameters at nuclear power plants are known as instrumentation and control (I&C) systems*. They are divided into two types: information systems and control systems. Both types operate by providing signals from measuring equipment. Information systems monitor plant parameters and systems; they display and…
Pengkajian penyusunan Perka BAPETEN tentang manajemen penuaaan instalasi nuklir non reaktor ini difokuskan pada upaya-upaya pengelolaan efek-efek penuaan yang terjadi pada Struktur, Sistem, dan Komponen (SSK) di INNR. Secara umum pengkajian dilaksanakan dalam rangka peningkatan pengawasan pemanfaatan tenaga nuklir yang efektif dan efisien, baik melalui penyusunan peraturan, perizinan, dan inspe…
This Safety Guide provides guidance on the development, content and use of operational limits and conditions (limits on plant operating parameters) and operating procedures that affect them. It recommends how to meet the requirements established in Safety Standards Series No. NS-R-2, Safety of Nuclear Power Plants: Operation, setting out the responsibilities of the operating organization in set…
