SMILE, Studsvik Material Integrity Life Extension, is supporting light water reactor operators and authorities worldwide in plant ageing management.
SMILE is a 5 year OECD/NEA project where experimental examinations and testing of aged materials, harvested from LWRs decommissioned after 40+ years of operation provide the basis. The project connects experts from all over the world, creating an important forum for knowledge transfer between organisations and age generations.
