<p>In situ heating test was conducted in an underground cavern at a depth of 50m for the purpose of improving thermo-hydro-mechanical coupled analysis code, and numerical results were compared with measured results. The comparison between numerical and measured ...

The technological implications of retrievability in geological disposal concepts are explored in this report. Scenarios for retrieving emplaced waste packages are considered and the report aims to identify and describe any related technological provisions ...

Geological disposal of radioactive wastes is based on the principle that the deep rock environment is stable and largely unaffected by environmental change for hundreds of thousands – even millions of years – times that are longer than those since the appearance ...
