Abstract: | The Savannah river laboratory maintains a compilation of operating problems and equipment failures that have occurred in the fuel reprocessing areas of the Savannah river plant. The data bank contains more than 175000 entries, ranging from minor equipment malfunctions to incidents with potential for injury or contamination of personnel, or for economic loss. The data bank has been used extensively for a wide variety of purposes such as probabilistic risk assessment, failure analysis, and trend analysis. An overview of the bank is given in terms of history of development, contents of the bank, management of data, uses for the bank and future development |
