Grouting of the rock surrounding high-level waste (HLW) can serve to minimize groundwater
flow around it and thereby to retard erosion of waste-embedding clay (buffer) and transport …

The Middle East (ME) is characterized by its water shortage problem. This region with its arid
climate is expected to be the most vulnerable in the world to the potential impacts of climate …

To study the mechanism of grouting reinforcement of broken coal mass, simulation
experiments on grout reinforcing of broken coal mass were performed by using traditional …

The rheological properties of cement-based grouts containing talc or palygorskite were
investi-gated for optimizing fluidity and quick strengthening at injection. The fluidity controls …

Dynamic grouting is one of the methods to improve grout spread in rock that have been
investigated since 1985. The results were promising, but all tests were performed under …

Lugeon tests, also known as water pressure tests, are widely used to estimate the
transmissivity of rock-fracture networks and are considered standard testing for grouting of …

Norway's inventory of radioactive waste consists of high-level radioactive waste from the
research reactors in Halden and Kjeller. In addition, there will be low and intermediate level …

This study describes the performance of concrete in fresh state, intended for sealing deep
bore-holes in the host rock of radioactive repositories. Set of different paste volumes …
