TL;DR: In this article, uncertainty and sensitivity analysis results obtained in the 1992 performance assessment (PA) for the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP) are presented, where the primary performance measure under study is the complementary cumulative distribution function (CCDF) used in assessing compliance with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA's) standard for the geologic disposal of radioactive waste.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of alternative conceptual models in a preliminary performance assessment for the waste isolation pilot plant
Jon C. Helton,D.R. Anderson,B.L. Baker,J.E. Bean,J.W. Berglund,Walter E. Beyeler,J.W. Garner,H.J. Iuzzolino,M.G. Marietta,Robert P. Rechard,P.J. Roache,D.K. Rudeen,J.D. Schreiber,Peter N. Swift,Martin S. Tierney,Palmer Vaughn +15 more
TL;DR: The most appropriate conceptual model for performance assessment (PA) at the waste isolation pilot plant (WIPP) is believed to include gas generation resulting from corrosion and microbial action in the repository, and a dual-porosity (matrix and fracture porosity) representation for the solute transport in the Culebra dolomite member of the Rustler formation as mentioned in this paper.
ReportDOI
Preliminary comparison with 40 CFR Part 191, Subpart B for the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant, December 1990
S.G. Bertram-Howery,M.G. Marietta,Robert P. Rechard,D.R. Anderson,Peter N. Swift,B.L. Baker,J.E. Bean,R.D. McCurley,D.K. Rudeen,Walter E. Beyeler,K.F. Brinster,R.V. Guzowski,Sch +12 more
TL;DR: Sandia National Laboratories (SNL) is evaluating long-term performance against criteria in Subpart B of the Environmental Radiation Protection Standards for Management and Disposal of Spent Nuclear Fuel, High-Level and Transuranic Radioactive Wastes (40 CFR Part 191, US EPA, 1985) as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Jon C. Helton,D.R. Anderson,B.L. Baker,J.E. Bean,J.W. Berglund,Walter E. Beyeler,R. Blaine,K. Economy,J.W. Garner,Stephen C. Hora,R.C. Lincoln,M.G. Marietta,F.T. Mendenhall,N.H. Prindle,D.K. Rudeen,J.D. Schreiber,A.W. Shiver,L.N. Smith,Peter N. Swift,Palmer Vaughn +19 more
TL;DR: In this article, a systems prioritization methodology (SPM) is developed for the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP) to determine compliance probabilities associated with different experimental programs and design modifications.
ReportDOI
Computational implementation of a systems prioritization methodology for the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant: A preliminary example
TL;DR: In this article, a systems prioritization methodology (SPM) is developed to provide guidance to the US DOE on experimental programs and design modifications to be supported in the development of a successful licensing application for the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP) for the geologic disposal of transuranic (TRU) waste.
