EURAD-GAS

EURAD-GAS develops experimental data and process-level models to improve the mechanistic understanding of gas transport in clay host rocks and engineered barrier-system components. It investigates transport regimes from diffusion to advection, including their coupling with mechanical behaviour and the resulting changes in clay properties. The work integrates laboratory and in-situ evidence into repository-scale concepts to assess how gas migration may affect barrier integrity and system performance.
