Abstract
Since 2004, three Joint Projects on the Comparison of Constitutive Models for the Thermo-Mechanical Behavior of Rock Salt have been performed. The general objectives are to document, check, and compare the advanced models and modeling procedures, to validate their suitability for numerical simulations and reliability, to increase confidence in the results, and to enhance the acceptance of conclusions. This contribution focuses on the US-German collaboration in the third project phase since October 2010 with a check and comparison of the modeling of the temperature influence on the deformation behavior of rock salt. This is of particular importance for the design, operation, and evaluation of the long-term safety of underground repositories for the disposal of high-level radioactive waste in rock salt. Examples of results from specifically performed laboratory tests, from recalculations of the tests, and from benchmark calculations of a heated borehole in the Asse II salt mine in Germany are introduced. Results from the borehole calculations with the considered models are compared with each other and with in-situ measurements. They demonstrate that the models are appropriate for modeling the thermo-mechanical deformation behavior of rock salt.
