Abstract
A full 3D creep FE analysis has been performed for the
nuclear waste disposal canister with a cast iron insert
and a copper overpack under external pressure. The FE
mesh of the canister contains a model of the joint line
hooking and the oxide particle zone, where the strength
of the material is assumed to be zero. The material model
includes elastic, plastic, creep and relaxation models.
The total strain distribution after predicted 1000 years
of exposure are presented.
