A Thermo-Hydro-Mechanical Coupling Analysis for the Contaminant Transport in a Bentonite Barrier with Variable Saturation

The migration of hazardous substances in a bentonite barrier layer is a key issue for the safety of nuclear waste storage. This study develops a thermo-hydro-mechanical coupling model to simulate the contaminant migration in a bentonite barrier layer of the nuclear waste storage chamber. In particul...
