A retrospective report reviewing the UK Central Energy Generating Board’s full-scale cask testing program and lenses the findings to current (2008) activities. 

A report by the UK Central Electricity Generating Board describing their full-scale regulatory testing initiative. This testing work included both theoretical analysis and physical testing of a Magnox package, which is not used in the US.

A report by Sandia National Labs detailing the mathematical analysis, scale- and full-scale model testing of a railcar-mounted spent nuclear fuel cask when struck by a locomotive at speed in a hypothetical grade-crossing collision. 

A report by Sandia National Labs detailing the mathematical analysis, scale- and full-scale model testing of a railcar-mounted spent nuclear fuel cask when involved in a collision with a rigid barrier. 

The report by Sandia National Labs associated with a presentation given at the 1978 National Academy of Science’s Transportation Research Board Annual Meeting. It details mathematical analysis, scale- and full-scale model testing related to testing the outcomes of spent fuel transportation casks involved in a crash.
