We provide rock mechanics consulting services in nuclear waste management, rock engineering and mining sectors, along with advanced numerical simulations.
The report provides a synthesis of all the rock mechanics work carried out during the site investigations of a deep geological spent nuclear fuel repository at Olkiluoto and, as such, provides input for the safety assessment of the repository. #rockmechanics#geomechanics
The culmination in a long line of rock mechanics reports that we've worked on has been published by Posiva Oy and is available from the link below. https://t.co/dpbWht0TFJ

Great to see our international peers @Posiva_fi advance their deep geological repository – the internationally accepted best practice for safely containing and isolating used nuclear fuel. #nuclear
The work was carried out by Rock Mechanics Consulting Finland Oy upon contract with The Swedish Nuclear Fuel and Waste Management Company SKB. The simulations were performed using Itasca's 3DEC-software. Please be in touch with us if you have any questions regarding the work.
If you are interested in how we carried out large-scale simulation of the in situ stress at Forsmark, Sweden, taking into account the effect of a total of 110 faults and the last glaciation, take a look at the open access report:
