Numerical modelling of unsaturated MX-80 bentonite subjected to two different hydration paths and subsequent loading to high-pressures
MX-80 bentonite has been considered as a suitable material for the construction of engineered barriers employed in deep geological radioactive waste repositories. These barriers are generally formed of compacted unsaturated bentonite, the latter experiencing a slow saturation due to its low permeabi...
