Plastic-damage modeling of saturated quasi-brittle shales

Lyesse Laloui, Francesco Parisio

The constitutive modeling of shales is an important topic in the geomechanics community as it is often encountered in advanced applications such as nuclear waste storage, CO2 sequestration, and unconventional oil and gas exploitation. The goal of this work ...

Investigation of the Intrinsic Permeability of MX-80 Bentonite through a 4-Scale Analysis of Its Fabric

Lyesse Laloui, Etienne André Cassini

MX-80 granular bentonite is expected to be used as a buffer material for high level nuclear waste storage in Switzerland. This material is composed of 85% of smectite clay and exhibits a particular structure with four different scales. MX-80 macroscopic pr ...

The equivalent pier method for energy pile groups

Lyesse Laloui, Alessandro Francesco Rotta Loria

This study presents a method for estimating the average vertical displacement of energy pile groups subjected to thermal loads. The method consists of replacing any regular energy pile group with a single equivalent pier of the same length and an equivalen ...

NAGRA Project Order 15’228 EBS – Task Force: Homogenization Analysis of Bentonite & Gas Transport in Bentonite

Lyesse Laloui, Aldo Madaschi

The Task 7 of the EBS task force is devoted to the modelling of gas transport phenomena in bentonite. This report describes the second phase of Task 7 that concerns the finite element modelling of some specific tests performed on granular bentonite to asse ...

Coupled Thermo-hydro-Mechanical Effects on Caprock Stability During Carbon Dioxide Injection

Lyesse Laloui, Chao Li

This study presents a numerical investigation of the effects of coupled material properties on the caprock stability. A thermo-hydro-mechanical framework is proposed in order to reproduce the physical processes. The results indicate that for a given geomet ...

Serviceability assessment of energy pile groups through design charts

Lyesse Laloui, Alessandro Francesco Rotta Loria

The estimation of the vertical displacement of energy pile groups subjected to thermal (and mechanical) loads is needed for a complete geotechnical and structural design of the piles in situations where these foundations may be located sufficiently close t ...

The Role of Anisotropy on the Volumetric Behaviour of Opalinus Clay upon Suction Change

Lyesse Laloui, Alessio Ferrari, Alberto Minardi, Eleonora Crisci

An experimental investigation to analyse the anisotropic volumetric response of shaly and sandy facies of Opalinus Clay upon suction variations is presented. Obtained results demonstrate the different behaviour of the tested facies to a wetting-drying cycl ...

Impact of thermally induced soil deformation on the serviceability of energy pile groups

Lyesse Laloui, Alessandro Francesco Rotta Loria

This paper expands on the impact of the thermally induced deformation of the soil on the serviceability mechanical performance (i.e., deformation-related) of energy pile groups. The work is based on the results of a full-scale in-situ test that was perform ...

Effect of End-Restraint Conditions on Energy Pile Behavior

Lyesse Laloui, Melis Sütman

Energy piles are deep foundation elements designed to utilize the relatively constant temperature of the ground for efficient heating and cooling of the buildings while at the same time serve as foundations. The temperature changes during the operation of ...

Thermally induced group effects among energy piles

Lyesse Laloui, Alessandro Francesco Rotta Loria

The behaviour of conventional pile groups (e.g., closely spaced) that are subjected to mechanical loads has been shown to be different than the behaviour of single isolated piles. The so-called group effects are responsible for this behaviour and must be c ...

Recent development in the multiphysical analysis and design of energy piles

Lyesse Laloui, Alessandro Francesco Rotta Loria

This study proposes an analysis of the multiphysical phenomena governing the thermo-mechanical behaviour of energy piles. The analysis is based on the results of a series of full-scale in-situ tests, laboratory experiments and numerical analyses. First, th ...

Hydromechanical Aspects of CO2 Breakthrough into Clay-rich Caprock

Lyesse Laloui, Roman Makhnenko, Victor Vilarrasa Riano, Danila Mylnikov

Caprock formations are intended to prevent upwards carbon dioxide (CO2) migration to the surface during CO2 geological storage. Caprock interaction with CO2, as well as its potential consequences, requires to be predicted, and thus, need to be studied expe ...

Impact of material properties on caprock stability in CO2 geological storage

Lyesse Laloui, Chao Li

In this study, thermo-hydro-mechanical coupled simulations are performed to investigate caprock stability under cooling and pressurization during the injection of carbon dioxide. It is shown that failure potential of caprock increases with a higher value o ...

Strength evolution of geomaterials in the octahedral plane under non-isothermal and unsaturated conditions

Lyesse Laloui, Francesco Parisio, Victor Vilarrasa Riano

Current geomechanical applications imply non-isothermal processes of unsaturated geomaterials, in most cases following stress paths different than the classical triaxial compression often used in laboratory testing. Though the effects of temperature, sucti ...

Fabric evolution and the related swelling behaviour of a sand/bentonite mixture upon hydro-chemo-mechanical loadings

Lyesse Laloui, Alessio Ferrari, Donatella Manca

This experimental study investigates the swelling behaviour of an 80/20 sand/bentonite mixture and the associated fabric evolution under different hydro-chemo-mechanical loadings. Free and confined swelling tests are performed on specimens compacted to dif ...

Wave propagation in the vicinities of rock fractures under obliquely incident wave

Lyesse Laloui, Jian Zhao, Yang Zou, Jing Li

Though obliquely incident plane wave across rock fractures has been extensively investigated by theoretical analysis, the quantitative identification of each wave emerged from fractures has not been achieved either in numerical simulation or laboratory exp ...
