Analytical and Numerical Estimation of Fracture Initiation and Propagation Regions around Large-Diameter, Deep Boreholes for Disposal of Long-Lived Intermediate-Level Waste
The safety of high-level radioactive waste disposal has been studied across the world considering mined geologic repositories. Here, we introduce large-diameter, deep borehole disposal as one of the potential solutions for small volumes of long-lived intermediate-level waste (ILW). The short- and lo...
