thermo-hydro-mechanical analysis, the case study was done on the Est site
in France and the analysis was disequations were solved and the material

And they were basically interested in the behaviour of the engineering barrier, which is - as we have seen before - could be a bentonite clay and immediately surrounding rock. And what happens in terms of moisture flow, in terms of temperature, over a period of time. | ![]() |
