Anisotropic behaviour of shallow opalinus clay

Lyesse Laloui, Alessio Ferrari, Eleonora Crisci, Alberto Minardi

Opalinus Clay shale, the selected host geomaterial of a high-level radioactive waste repository in Switzerland, was sourced at shallow depth in a borehole in the northern part of the country. Pairs of specimens, retrieved from the same depth were prepared ...

Benchmark study of undrained triaxial testing of Opalinus Clay shale: Results and implications for robust testing

Lyesse Laloui, Alessio Ferrari, Alberto Minardi

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 sensitivity to exposure of atmosp ...

Experimental assessment of the hydro-mechanical behaviour of a shale caprock during CO2 injection

Lyesse Laloui, Alessio Ferrari, Eleni Stavropoulou, Alberto Minardi, Taeheon Kim

The presented experimental study focuses on the hydro-mechanical characterisation of a shale caprock (Opalinus Clay) in contact with carbon dioxide. The objective of this paper, consists in the evaluation of the material's sealing capacity in terms of entr ...
