An overview of recent studies in which the transport of radionuclides in porous materials has
been recently modeled is provided. The focus is on the modeling based on balance …

The spatial porosity and mineral distribution of geological materials strongly affects transport
processes in them. X-ray micro computed tomography (X-μCT) has proven to be a powerful …

Reactive transport codes are widely applied in geoscience to predict or reconstruct spatial
and temporal evolution of geochemical systems. To provide an accurate description of …

This paper delves into the key factors governing contaminant retardation and the scaling of
retardation factor for contaminant transport in naturally fractured media. It employs a …

Because cracks control the global mechanical and transport properties of crystalline rocks, it
is of a crucial importance to suitably determine their aperture distribution, which evolves …

In the present paper, we discuss various aspects of the SKB Task Force on Modeling of
Groundwater Flow and Transport of Solutes (TFGWFTS). The TFGWTS is a multi-lateral …

We present an enhanced continuum-based approach for the modelling of groundwater flow
coupled with reactive transport in crystalline fractured rocks. In the proposed formulation …

Field investigation studies, conducted in the context of safety analyses of deep geological
repositories for nuclear waste, have pointed out that in fractured crystalline rocks sorbing …

The spatial distribution of barium activity in granitic rocks was measured with two
autoradiography techniques; digital autoradiography using phosphor imaging plate …

In sparsely fractured rock, the ubiquitous heterogeneity of the matrix, which has been
observed in different laboratory and in situ experiments, has been shown to have a …
