The coupled Thermo-Hydro-Mechanical (THM) behavior of the Callovo-Oxfordian claystone (COx) is great importance for design and safety calculations high-level radioactive waste disposal project in this potential host rock France. heat emitted by causes a pore pressure increase within surrounding essentially due to differential thermal expansion water solid skeleton. low permeability COx its relative rigidity inhibits discharge induced build-up. Moreover, loading may provoke thermo-mechanical...

This study is part of numerical simulations performed on an in-situ heating test conducted by the French National Radioactive Waste Management Agency (Andra) at Meuse/Haute-Marne Underground Research Laboratory (URL) to hydromechanical behavior host Callovo-Oxfordian COx claystone in quasi real conditions through international research project DECOVALEX. In this study, we present a analysis damage and cracking due gas effects processes unsaturated claystone, while considering distribution...

As part of the ThORN project [1], an in-situ experiment to quantify thermo-osmotic (TO) flow in Callovo-Oxfordian clays will be carried out at Bure Underground Research Laboratory (URL) Meuse/Haute-Marne, France.While previous research on TO has been reconstructed samples, our accompanied by evaluation well-controlled laboratory experiments intact samples. The aim this is quantitatively assess importance and parameterisation clay under thermal gradients induced heat nuclear decay. design all...

We apply thermoporoelasticity and a sequentially coupling technique for modeling thermally-driven coupled Thermo-Hydro-Mechanical (THM) processes in tight claystone. A THM benchmark case with corresponding analytic solution under constant heat loading verifies the model. Thereafter, two situ heating experiments are simulated model validation: smaller-scale experiment (TED experiment) larger-scale (ALC Callovo-Oxfordian (COx) claystone at Meuse/Haute-Marne underground research laboratory...

Abstract The French National Radioactive Waste Management Agency (Andra) is in charge of studying the disposal high-level and intermediate-level long-lived waste (HLW ILW-LL) a deep geological repository (Cigéo project) within host formation Callovo-Oxfordian claystone (COx). heat emitted from packages induces thermo-hydro-mechanical (THM) coupling structural elements rock. This study focuses on behavior concrete lining an ILW-LL cell subjected to THM loading during its construction...
