A coupled hydro – mechanical approach for modelling the volume change behaviour of compacted bentonite
The volumetric response of compacted bentonites against environmental actions is a key aspect in most designs of nuclear waste repositories. The safety assessment of such repositories must account for robust and reliable models of stress–strain for bentonites. While many models for unsaturated low a...
