Black shale deposition during the Early Jurassic: Geochemistry of Pliensbachian and Toarcian sedimentary rocks of the Hunzen Well, Hils Syncline, Northwest German Basin

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, EarlyView.
Our research uses a multidisciplinary approach, including organic and inorganic geochemistry, biostratigraphy, carbon isotope geochemistry and organic petrography to reconstruct depositional conditions and organic matter accumulation during the Pliensbachian and Toarcian.

Elevated temperature effects on swelling pressure of compacted bentonite

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
We present a set of new experimental investigations on the effects of elevated temperature on the swelling pressure development of compacted bentonite. This research was motivated by an emerging interest in using bentonite as a plug material in oil and gas well abandonment.

Permeability of granite from a shallow buried mountain pipe gallery tunnel under unloading confining pressure

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Triaxial compression tests under unloading confining pressure conditions were conducted to systematically analyze the permeability behavior of granite retrieved from the different classification surrounding rocks. Abstract The rock mass within mountain tunnels undergoes complex changes in permeability, strength, and deformation during tunneling ...

Numerical analysis of thermal process in the near field around vertical disposal of high-level radioactive waste

open access: yesJournal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering, 2014
For deep geological disposal of high-level radioactive waste (HLW) in granite, the temperature on the HLW canisters is commonly designed to be lower than 100 °C. This criterion dictates the dimension of the repository.

Radioactive Waste Management

open access: yes, 2015
Today one of the major challenges facing by mankind is to provide proper management for radioactive waste management. Any industrial activity results in generation of some waste material. Nuclear industry is no exception and the presence of radiation emitting radioactive materials which may have adverse impact on living beings and which is likely to ...

Clays in radioactive waste disposal

open access: yesJournal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering, 2010
AbstractClays and argillites are considered in some countries as possible host rocks for nuclear waste disposal at great depth. The use of compacted swelling clays as engineered barriers is also considered within the framework of the multi-barrier concept. In relation to these concepts, various research programs have been conducted to assess the thermo-

The damage and failure mechanism of prestatically loaded rock during medium‐strain rate cyclic impact loading

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Based on experimental results and theoretical analysis, an established rock damage accumulation model that comprehensively considers the preapplied static load, impact peak value, impact frequency, and impact times. Abstract To study the rock damage mechanism under high static loading and superimposed medium strain rate cyclic impact loading, a series ...

A rock brittleness index based on the postpeak energy release rate and damage surface characteristics for brittle hard rock

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study examines energy evolution in rock rupture via triaxial direct shear tests, exploring the impact of confining pressure and temperature on fracture surface randomness. A novel energy‐based brittleness index is proposed, validated experimentally, and compared with existing methods for reliability and accuracy.
