EURAD-WP-Gas: Mechanistic understanding of gas transport in clay materials

Beschreibung

The main objectives of this project are:

to improve the mechanistic understanding of gas transport processes in natural and engineered clay materials, their couplings with the mechanical behaviour and their impact on the properties of these materials.
to evaluate the gas transport regimes that can be active at the scale of a geological disposal system and their potential impact on barrier integrity and repository performance.
