Mechanical defradation of Emplacement Drifts at Yucca Mountain- A Modeling Case Study. Part I [electronic resource] : Nonlithophysal Rock.

This paper outlines rock mechanics investigations associated with mechanical degradation of planned emplacement drifts at Yucca Mountain, which is the designated site for the proposed U.S. high-level nuclear waste repository. The factors leading to drift degradation include stresses from the overbur...
