Abstract
The modelling in fuel behaviour codes that are in use at
VTT are being upgraded to meet the requirements from
evolving fuel design and operational data - most notably
higher burnup goals - and from revised guidelines for
applying the licensing procedures. Work is being carried
out to partially renew the descriptions of fission
product swelling and release, and detailed mechanical
response. As effective probabilistic methods will be
favoured even in fuel accident behaviour codes, bases for
such studies are being founded. Emphatic education and
training of a new generation of experts is showing good
progress.
