ABSTRACT: Numerical modeling techniques using the combined finite-discrete element method have been utilized to explore the relationship between stress, damage, and crack propagation in concrete. Obtaining post-peak behavior from the Brazilian tensio

Coal combustion byproducts (CCBs) disposed of in unlined landfills can affect the quality of adjacent water resources. In previous studies, CCBs have been found to leach toxic heavy metals such as arsenic, mercury, and lead into groundwater. CCBs inc

Long-term performance of a waste-containment facility liner system can be simply and inexpensively monitored in dry climates by relative humidity measurements. An increase in humidity as atmospheric air is circulated through a dry coarse layer within

Capillary barriers, consisting of fine-over-coarse soil layers, are being considered as an alternative cover component for waste-disposal facilities, especially in dry climates. Infiltrating water is removed from the fine layer by evaporation or tran

A numerical procedure has been developed for predicting dilation (porosity) and gas permeability changes in rock salt. The hierarchical single-surface constitutive model of Desai and co-workers is used a finite element program to calculate the state

The permeability of sandstone was measured in triaxial tests. Within the range of confining pressures used here, permeability as a function of differential stress was found to decrease until a minimum value was reached at about 60–70% of the fractu

The Geocomposite Capillary Barrier Drain (GCBD) has been developed and tested to prevent positive pore pressures from developing by laterally draining water while it is still in tension. The GCBD consists of two key layers that function as long as th

Ross` solution for the divergence capacity of a capillary barrier is modified to incorporate constant hydraulic conductivity anisotropy of the fine layer. The analysis assumes steady infiltration and that the principal directions of the hydraulic con

Sealing of Boreholes and Underground Excavations in Rock ISBN: 9789401071734
Effective sealing of penetrations (boreholes) in geological materials is becoming increasingly important as it is recognized that groundwater resources need to be protected from potential contamination. In the undisturbed geological system, potential

This report presents a preliminary evaluation of design concepts for the eventual sealing of the shafts, drifts, and boreholes at the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant Facility. The purpose of the seal systems is to limit the flow of water into, through, a
