Transport and storage of radioactive materials 1995. PVP-Volume 307

The design of packaging for the transport of radioactive materials is a constantly evolving activity due primarily to new materials, new design approaches, and a better understanding of the regulations. As a consequence, the Operations, Applications and Components Committee organizes several sessions at the annual ASME PVP Division Conference to provide a forum for the discussion of the most recent trends in the transport and storage of radioactive materials. This publication is composed of technical papers that have been prepared for presentation at the 1995 Joint ASME/JSME Pressure Vessels and Piping Conference (July 23--27, Honolulu, Hawaii) during the sessions addressing the transport and storage of radioactive materials. The papers included were prepared to address engineering or regulatory issues associated with the transport or storage of radioactive materials. However, the subject matter can also have applications to solutions for problems in other areas. Individual paper have been processed separately for inclusion in the appropriate data bases
