Abstract:The conceptual design and fabrication test of a full-scale ceramic overpack were performed from the viewpoint of structural barriers as a part of program to evaluate their potential use as overpack under conditions of deep geological disposal.Materials investigated were porcelain (used for insulators) and A1 2 0 3 with high purity of 99.7 %. The selected design consisted of a cylindrical body with hemispherical heads at each end. The design thickness of overpack is the sum of the structural thickness and corro… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
