Safety And Reliability

The study analizes the requirements for instrumentation and control systems of NPP units, which are currently under modernization in accordance with the state program for long-term operation of Ukrainian NPP units. The requirements established in the documents that regulate reliability and quality of performing functions by these systems emphasize the importance of developing methods to improve the accuracy of parameter measurements, methods to increase reliability of assessing safety and reliability indexes of NPP unit operation, as well as the accuracy of personnel decisions in the presence of many uncertainties and inaccuracies in the description of initial data that affect implementing necessary management actions by personnel. The paper presents the examples of the impact of initial data uncertainty on solving the tasks of safety and reliability assessment for NPP units. The study analyzes existing methods to account and describe initial data uncertainty and modeling uncertainty in the tasks of safety and operational reliability assessment for NPP units. The possibility of applying mathematical methods and tools of interval analysis to improve reliability of solving the issues of assessing safety, reliability and efficiency of NPP unit operation under conditions of initial data uncertainty was justified. The study presents the basic principles of interval calculations, which allow considering inaccuracies when specifying the initial data, parameter uncertainties and multi-mode nature of functioning of such complex technical systems as NPP units. The prospects of applying the main theoretical provisions of interval analysis and their implementation in the form of numerical methods and models to solve current issues of assessing safety, reliability and efficiency of accident-free operation of NPP units in compliance with the state program for long-term operation were specified.

Execution of protectionist measures by the state in the film screening field is a significant for the entire film industry as a whole, as the state of the Russian film screening affects both distribution and film production. The implementation process of the state program to provide subsidies for the cinemas modernization cinemas in small and medium-sized Russia cities has been examined. The current program results, their importance for the regional film screening and the Russian film industry have been analyzed. The special socio-economic conditions of the subsidized theaters functioning have been highlighted. The two-level system organization for further activities subsidized cinemas support is proposed and a measures set to achieve the state program goals for the long term have been offered.

Rock mass is considered as a natural barrier impeding the release of radioactive waste into the environment, being part of a multi-barrier system designed to ensure the safety of deep disposal facilities for radioactive waste (DDF RW). A number of regulatory documents [1] and recommendations [2, 3] states the importance of the geological medium, namely, its characteristics for the long-term safety of RW disposal. Current stage of URL development project is specifically focused on providing the opportunities for geological research covering target RW disposal horizons solely via borehole methods before the entire complex of underground excavations is formed. Due to long-term operation of wells and their initial design features, the state of some of these wells has appeared to be unsatisfactory requiring reconstruction. In addition, in accordance with certain legislative requirements, all wells shall be abandoned after relevant operations have been completed. The article discusses the reconstruction and abandonment of wells drilled at the Yeniseiskiy site. It demonstrates the feasibility of proposed designs providing the opportunities for further expansion of studies to investigate the state of rocks under natural conditions and to arrange for monitoring. The paper provides an evaluation and comparative analysis of plugging materials proposed to be applied under well abandonment operations.

Nuclear energy is a strategic Ukrainian industry that produces more than 50% of electricity at present. Over the last decade during the operation of Ukrainian NPPs, the set of technical matters have been found and corresponding tasks shall be decided with engaging of scientific potential of the country. One of such matter is a safety justification of NPP components and structures for the period that is bigger than an initial design one and that is defined as transition from design operation to the long-term operation (LTO). From the end of 2010 to the beginning of 2020, the State Nuclear Regulatory Inspectorate of Ukraine granted 11 licenses for 11 power units based on positive results of the state assessment and review of Periodic Safety Review Reports considering mandatory safety review each ten years. These results became possible due to the coordinated, conscientious and longstanding work of thousands of highly qualified nuclear experts, which led to the fact that Ukraine now has a unique experience in preparation for a transition of various types of WWER-1000 and WWER-440 reactors to LTO. The summarized results and lessons learnt from the practice of transition to LTO are presented in this paper.

The article focuses on the long-term ship leasing market, which is in fact an alternative financing market for the industry. The aim of the study was to provide an overview of the state of the Russian leasing market in the field of shipbuilding in the current economic conditions and to show the positive aspects of using this financial instrument as a means of increasing the activity of participants in the investment process in the shipbuilding industry, aimed at accelerating the renewal of the civilian fleet and recovering the industry after the crisis. The problematic issues arising in the practice of leasing activities in the industry are considered. The use of leasing in Russian shipbuilding is supported by the state with the help of an existing program that provides preferential terms for leasing transactions for shipbuilding. The article examines the conditions, results and prospects for the implementation of the state program of civil shipbuilding leasing.

The Energy Strategy of Ukraine for the period until 2030 foresees that about half of the Ukrainian NPP units will constitute those with extended lifetime (long term operation) over the next 10 years. The first “pilot” plants for long-term operation were Rivne units 1 and 2 (VVER-440/213) in 2010. South Ukraine NPP unit 1 (VVER-1000/V-302) is the next step in gaining long-term operation experience in Ukraine (appropriate decision was made in 2012). In both cases, the decision was preceded by many-year comprehensive activities performed by the operator, regulator and national and international scientific and technical support organizations, which were involved in safety justification from the operator and regulator sides.
