Gas flow through clay barriers
(Institution of Civil Engineers (http://www.ice.org.uk/), 2008)
Article
Accés obertA model for the simulation of gas flow in clayey rocks and clays is described. Gas migration is associated with the development of preferential paths along existing or pressure-dependent discontinuities. The model handles ... -
Heat storage efficiency, ground surface uplift and thermo-hydro-mechanical phenomena for high-temperature aquifer thermal energy storage
(2022-10)
Article
Accés obertHigh-temperature aquifer thermal energy storage (HT-ATES) systems can help in balancing energy demand and supply for better use of infrastructures and resources. The aim of these systems is to store high amounts of heat ... -
Hidratación de un relleno compactado que contiene agregados de alta intensidad
(1996-01)
Article
Accés restringit per política de l'editorialSe han investigado, mediante ensayos de laboratorio, las características de hidratación de mezclas expansivas constituídas por una matriz de polvo arcilloso y agregados (pastillas de pequeño tamaño) de arcilla de alta ... -
In situ behaviour of a stiff layered clay subject to thermal loading: Observations and interpretation
(2007-03)
Article
Accés obertThe paper presents an interpretation of an in situ heating test carried out on Opalinus clay in the Mont Terri underground laboratory. Opalinus clay is a stiff, strongly bedded, Mesozoic clay of marine origin. When subjected ... -
Mechanical behaviour of heavily compacted bentonite under high suction changes
(Institution of Civil Engineers (http://www.ice.org.uk/), 2003)
Article
Accés obertThe paper reports the results of an experimental study carried out on a bentonite compacted to a dry density of up to 1·7 Mg=m3, a high value for this type of soil. The soil fabric has been studied using a variety of ... -
Mechanics of unsaturated geomaterials applied to nuclear waste storage

Modeling swelling soils for disposal barriers
(Elsevier, 2000)
Article
Accés obertA fully coupled advanced formulation for heat, liquid and gas transfer in unsaturated deforming soils is presented. Balance equations are rooted in the theory of mixtures. A double porosity model, which is believed to ... -
Numerical formulation for a simulator (CODE_BRIGHT) for the coupled analysis of saline media
(MCB University Press, 1996)
Article
Accés obertSalt rocks are being considered as potential recipients for geologic disposal of nuclear waste because of their favourable hydraulic and mechanical properties. In essence, processes controlling the behaviour of salt rocks ... -
Pellet mixtures in isolation barriers
(Science Press, 2010)
Article
Accés obertGranular mixtures made of high-density pellets of bentonite are being evaluated as an alternative buffer material for waste isolation. Ease of handling is an often-mentioned advantage. The paper describes the experimental ... -
Performance of large diameter storage and sealing structures in a deep exothermic waste repository
(2022)
Text en actes de congrés
Accés restringit per política de l'editorialThe paper presents the work carried out to assess and simulate numerically the phenomenology behind the response of large diameter intermediate-level long-lived nuclear waste (ILW-LL) storage galleries and the corresponding ... -
Reactive solute transport in variable density
(Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2009-10-20)
Tesina
Accés obertA pesar del gran avance que ha vivido la modelaci on del transporte reactivo en las ultimas d ecadas, s olo unos pocos estudios han abordado el problema del transporte reactivo en un ujo con densidad variable. En este ... -

Simulation of expansive clay behavior under simultaneous heating-hydration for nuclear waste storage applications
(American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), 2010)
Text en actes de congrés
Accés restringit per política de l'editorialThe storage of nuclear waste is still an unresolved problem of the nuclear industry, being geological disposal the most favoured option. Most conceptual designs for the deep geological disposal of nuclear waste envisage ... -
Small-strain shear stiffness of compacted bentonites for engineered barrier system
(Elsevier, 2019-06)
Article
Accés obertThe shear modulus (G) of two different bentonites was measured by means of a resonant column apparatus. The samples were compacted at different dry densities and degrees of saturation and tested with different confinement ... -
Suction-controlled experiments on Boom clay
(Elsevier, 1997)
Article
Accés obertThe understanding of the thermo-hydro-mechanical behaviour of a clay barrier is needed for the prediction of its final in situ properties after the hydration and thermal transient in a radioactive waste repository. As ... -
The FEBEX benchmark test: case definition and comparison of modelling approaches
(Elsevier, 2005)
Article
Accés obertThe FEBEX (Full-scale Engineered Barriers Experiment in Crystalline Host Rock) ‘‘in situ’’ test was installed at the Grimsel Test Site underground laboratory (Switzerland) and is a near-to-real scale simulation of the ... -
Thermo-hydraulic characterisation of soft rock by means of heating pulse tests
(2009-05)
Article
Accés restringit per política de l'editorialLow-permeability clayey rocks, currently considered as suitable host rocks for high-level nuclear waste disposal, pose a challenge for the determination of thermal, hydraulic and mechanical properties. A thermo-hydraulic ... -
