Benchmark study of undrained triaxial testing of Opalinus Clay shale: Results and implications for robust testing
Minardi, Alberto; Giger, Silvio B.; Ewy, Russel T.; Stancovic, Rudy; Stenebråten, Jørn; Soldal, Magnus; Rosone, Marco; Ferrari, Alessio; Laloui, Lyesse (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Triaxial testing of argillaceous rocks and shales is significantly more challenging than conventional rock mechanical testing. The challenges are mainly related to the very low permeability of these geomaterials, and their ... -
Insights from an extensive triaxial testing campaign on a shale for comparative site characterization of a deep geological repository
Crisci, Eleonora; Giger, Silvio B.; Laloui, Lyesse; Ferrari, Alessio; Ewy, Russel T.; Stankovic, Rudy; Stenebråten, Jørn; Halvorsen, Kristine; Soldal, Magnus (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Several boreholes were drilled for site comparison of a deep geological repository (DGR) in Northern Switzerland. The main target of the exploration program was the >100m thick Opalinus Clay, the designated host rock ...
