Thermomechanics problems in nuclear waste disposal
Description
A simple worst case analysis indicates that the thermal expansion of buried radioactive waste and the surrounding rock does not preclude the burial of waste, provided that it has been aged 5-10 years, and provided that void space in the borehole is made available by costly additional drilling and modification of the borehole. The results of the analysis also indicate that detailed models are necessary for design purposes, and also, these results identify the parameters which will determine optimum designs
