Developing new technologies to make use of underground space
In the Rock Testing Block, we are working to develop new technologies for existing facilities such as tunnels and underground power generation plants. We also conduct research and development aimed at new underground facilities such as high level radioactive waste disposal sites. We use testing equipment having various different load-bearing capacities to スポーツベット 穴 and evaluate the mechanical, hydraulic, and physical properties of rock and bedrock under many different conditions, such as high-pressure and high-temperature environment deep under the ground.
Types of スポーツベット 穴
- Triaxial compression スポーツベット 穴, triaxial creep スポーツベット 穴, fatigue スポーツベット 穴, bending スポーツベット 穴
- Triaxial compression スポーツベット 穴, permeability スポーツベット 穴, under high-pressure (80 MPa max.) and/or high-temperature (200℃ max.)
- スポーツベット 穴 of various mock-ups using a combination of a load frame and hydraulic pressure generator
Facility Features
- 0.5 MN, and 4.6 MN load スポーツベット 穴 devices
- 80 MPa hydraulic pressure generators
- Triaxial compression スポーツベット 穴 machine for soft rock (in a thermostatic laboratory)
- Portable load スポーツベット 穴 machine
- Rock specimen molding equipment (surface grinder, cutter, boring machine)
Examples of Tests and Achievements
- Basic research to build a rock mechanics model presuming a large rock cavern
- Evaluation of strength and deformation characteristics of soft rock presumed urban underground
- Performance evaluation of fiber-reinforced concrete materials and woody materials
- Evaluation of mechanical properties of tunnel support members
- Evaluation of rock permeability at high level radioactive waste disposal sites
