The merits of CO 2 capture and storage to the environmental stability of our world should not
be underestimated as emissions of greenhouse gases cause serious problems. It represents …

Significant progress in hydrology, especially in subsurface flow and solute transport, has
been made over the last 35 years because of sustained interest in underground nuclear …

This third edition offers a comprehensive overview of the latest theories on flow, transport,
and heat-exchange processes in porous media. It also details sophisticated porous media …

The range of problems that geotechnical engineers must face is increasing in complexity
and scope. Often, complexity arises from the interaction between the soil and the …

Rainfall is one of the most significant triggering factors for slope failures in many regions
around the world. Numerous research studies have been conducted to investigate infiltration …

A fully coupled thermo-hydro-mechanical (THM) finite element (FE) formulation is presented
that considers freezing and thawing in water-saturated soils. The formulation considers each …

Geologic carbon storage, as well as other geo-energy applications, such as geothermal
energy, seasonal natural gas storage and subsurface energy storage imply fluid injection …

The constitutive model presented in this work is built on a conceptual approach for
unsaturated expansive soils in which the fundamental characteristic is the explicit …

The paper describes the performance, observations and interpretation of a large-scale in
situ heating test that simulates a disposal concept for heat-emitting, high-level nuclear …

Solution-mined caverns excavated in rock salt formations are recognized as the appropriate
places for underground storage of energy in the form of compressed air and hydrogen …
