This citation summarizes a one-page announcement of technology available for utilization. Several tests were performed to determine the survivability of casks used in transporting nuclear waste by rail. The study, conducted for the U.S. Army Armament Research and Development Command, consisted of simulating railroad accidents involving two different kinds of fires: the torch fire and the pool fire. ...FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: Detailed information about the technology described may be obtained by ordering the NTIS report, order number: AD-A130872/NAA, price code: A08, or contact project officer William Wright (301) 278-4913.
