Insight on the Swelling Pressure–Suction Relationship of Compacted Bentonite during Hydration

Investigation of the swelling pressure of buffer/backfill materials is a critical aspect in the design of high-level radioactive waste (HLW) disposal repositories. In this study, to clarify the swelling pressure–suction relation for compacted bentonite upon the hydration path, constant-volume swelli...
