Possibilities of judging underground caverns based on the mathematical modelling [PDF]

open access: yesActa Montanistica Slovaca, 2006
A basic assumption of utilizing salt caverns as underground storages is ensuring their safety and geotechnical stability. The paper shows on example possibilities of mathematical modelling of solution stability salt caverns in Zbudza.

Technical potential of salt caverns for hydrogen storage in Europe

open access: yesInternational Journal of Hydrogen Energy, 2019
The role of hydrogen in a future energy system with a high share of variable renewable energy sources (VRES) is regarded as crucial in order to balance fluctuations in electricity generation. These fluctuations can be compensated for by flexibility measures such as the expansion of transmission, flexible generation, larger back-up capacity and storage.

Overview of the geophysical studies in the Dead Sea coastal area related to evaporite karst and recent sinkhole development

open access: yesInternational Journal of Speleology, 2017
Since the early 80s, a progressively increasing number of sinkholes appeared along the Dead Sea coastal line. It has been found that their appearance is strongly correlating with the lowering of the Dead Sea level taking place with the rate of ...
