1. NAME AND TITLE
INTRUDE-ANS A Repository Intrusion Risk Evaluation Code
2. CONTRIBUTORS
Associated Nuclear Services, Surrey, England through the NEA Data Bank, Gif-sur-Yvette Cedex,
France.
3. CODING LANGUAGE AND COMPUTER
Fortran 77, VAX 8810.
4. NATURE OF PROBLEM SOLVED
INTRUDE was developed to facilitate calculation of the risks associated with the possibility of
intrusion into a repository containing radioactive waste.
5. METHOD OF SOLUTION
INTRUDE evaluates the risk based on three routes of exposure: inhalation of active material by
the intruder, external exposure of the intruder and distribution of active material around the intrusion
region leading to long term exposure pathways. The time dependent activity by each nuclide is
calculated by means of an analytic solution to the Bateman equation.
6. RESTRICTIONS OR LIMITATIONS
None noted.
7. TYPICAL RUNNING TIME
On a VAX 8810, INTRUDE took 3.64 seconds.
8. COMPUTER HARDWARE REQUIREMENTS
INTRUDE runs on the VAX family of computers.
9. COMPUTER SOFTWARE REQUIREMENTS
A Fortran 77 compiler is required. The operating system for the VAX is VMS.
