Reversible Experiments: Putting Geological Disposal to the Test. [PDF]
Sci Eng Ethics, 2016 Conceiving of nuclear energy as a social experiment gives rise to the question of what to do when the experiment is no longer responsible or desirable. To be able to appropriately respond to such a situation, the nuclear energy technology in question should be reversible, i.e.

Influence of pore structure on grain bulk modulus of underground rock masses under hydro-mechanical conditions [PDF]
Scientific ReportsWe present an evaluation of the grain bulk modulus of rocks through experimental and theoretical methods. Unjacketed tests were performed on three rock types—Berea sandstone, Idaho sandstone, and Hwangdeung granite—to measure grain-scale compressibility.
