Abstract

The Chair for waste disposal technologies and geomechanics has analysed the effects of mechanical cyclic loading of rock salt by laboratory testing. The tests were characterized by cyclic loading at stress conditions above the stress level where dilation will occur and stress conditions below the dilation stress level. The duration of the cyclic loading was 250 days to analyse in detail the damage induced creep behaviour and healing behaviour of rock salt by long term cyclic and constant loading at different stress levels.
