Among the current problems that hydrogeologists face, perhaps there is none as
challenging as the characterization of fractured rock (Faybishenko and Benson 2000). This …

Investigations of colloid movement through geologic materials are driven by a variety of
issues, including contaminant transport, soil‐profile development, and subsurface migration …

Fractured rock is the host or foundation for innumerable engineered structures related to
energy, water, waste, and transportation. Characterizing, modeling, and monitoring fractured …

In the context of geological disposal of radioactive waste, one of the controlling mechanisms
for radionuclide migration through subsurface strata is sorption to mobile colloidal bentonite …

Driven by the global imperative for the geological disposal of high-level radioactive waste
(HLW), notable progress has been made in predicting radionuclide transport within fractured …

Recent recognition of colloid and colloida-ssociated transport of strongly sorbing
contaminants in fractured rocks highlights the importance of exploring the transport behavior …

The distribution of colloid‐associated contaminants and colloid‐sized microorganisms within
the vadose zone is controlled, in part, by mobilization and retention processes. In this work …

Complex fluid behavior in unsaturated fracture and fracture networks, such as film flow, the
migration, fragmentation, and coalescence of droplets, and rivulet flow with or without …

Saline conditions induce not only chemical but physical changes in swelling clays, and have
a significant influence on the crack dynamics and morphology of desiccating clays. In this …

Corrosion product deposits in the secondary side of nuclear power plant steam generators
may result in Tube Support Plate (TSP) clogging and tube fouling. Magnetite has an inverse …
