A NUMERICAL INVESTIGATION ON THE EFFECT OF GAS PRESSURE ON THE WATER SATURATION OF COMPACTED BENTONITE-SAND SAMPLES

A Numerical Investigation on the Effect of Gas Pressure on the Water Saturation of Compacted Bentonite-Sand Samples

In deep geological disposal for high-level radioactive waste, the generated gas can potentially affect the sealing ability of bentonite buffers.There is Fireplace a competition between water and gas: the former provides sealing by swelling bentonite, and the latter attempts to desaturate the bentonite buffer.Thus, this study focused on numerically
