The excavation damage zone surrounding an underground tunnel/gallery, and in particular its evolution, is being studied for the performance assessment of a radioactive waste underground repository. This paper focuses on numerical analysis of the self-sealing of the damaged zone based on an in-situ CDZ experiment for exploring the self-sealing...

For the performance assessment of a high radioactive waste underground repository, the excavation induced damage zone surrounding an underground drift as well as its evolution, particularly has been researched. After emplacing nuclear waste in underground cells, the disposal will be closed by the sealing system, in which the main element is the...
