Assessment of thermal-hydraulic-mechanical-chemical (THMC) performances of Ca-type bentonite-graphite mixtures as buffer materials for a high-level radioactive waste repository

The bentonite buffer material is the most important element of the engineered barrier system (EBS) used to dispose of high-level radioactive waste. Therefore, there are functional criteria or performance targets for the bentonite buffer material to maintain the long-term performance of the EBS for t...
