The researches on engineering technology in the Mizunami Underground Research Laboratory (MIU) project in FY2016, detailed investigations of the (mechanical) behaviors of the plug and the rock mass around the reflood tunnel through ongoing reflood test were performed as part of (5) development of technologies for restoration and/or reduction of the excavation damage. As the result, particularly for the temperature change of the plug, its analytical results agree fairly well agree with the measurement ones. This means cracks induced by temperature stress can be prevented by the cooling countermeasure works reviewed in designing stage. In addition, for the behaviors of the plug and the bedrock boundary after reflooding the reflood tunnel, comparison between the results obtained by coupled hydro-mechanical analysis (stress-fluid coupled analysis) with the ones by several measurements, concluded that the model established based on the analysis results is generally appropriated.

With respect to high-level radioactive waste disposal, knowledge of the long-term mechanical stability of shafts and galleries excavated in rock is required, not only during construction and operation but also over a period of thousands of years after closure. On the other hand, it is known that rock and the rock mass surrounding the disposal gallery shows time dependent behavior such as creep or the stress-relaxation. It becomes the issue in the stability evaluation of the disposal gallery to grasp the behavior. In order to solve this issue, we pushed forward research development. we pushed forward research development. In the fiscal year of 2015, the creep testing machine for Tage tuff was moved to the new building. The creep test was continuously conducted and the total testing time exceeded 17 years. The testing equipment and procedure were examined to investigate the deformation, failure and time-dependency of rock under wet conditions and between room temperature and 100C. The long-term strength of rock under triaxle stress state was researched with the aid of laboratory testing results and in situ stress measurement.

In the Horonobe Underground Research Laboratory, rock mass classification and determination of mechanical properties of rock mass was conducted considering the effect of the density of fractures in the rock mass. In this paper, the authors report the mechanical properties of rock mass detected by plate loading tests and in situ shear tests in the 250 m and 350 m galleries. As a result, the failure criteria based on the result of in situ shear tests provides the most conservative value for the design of support pattern and assessment of stability of the gallery.

In the Mizunami Underground Research Laboratory, groundwater recovery experiment is being conducted to construct the method to understand the transition of geological environment due to groundwater recovery at the -500m access and research gallery-north. As a part of this experiment, backfill test is planned using drilling pits filled with artificial materials (clay and concrete) to evaluate the influence on the surrounding rock mass due to the interaction of rock and artificial materials. In this study, numerical simulation of the backfill test has been carried out to predict the qualitative hydro-mechanical behavior.

The in-situ long-term sorption and diffusion experiment (LTDE-SD) at the Aspo Hard Rock Laboratory in Sweden provides valuable dataset to test the scaling approach from laboratory to in-situ condition. The scaling approach developed in the in-situ Long-Term Diffusion (LTD) project at Grimsel Test Site in Switzerland was tested for the LTDE-SD results as part of the SKB Task Force on modeling of groundwater flow and transport of solutes in fractured crystalline rocks. Our modelling approach could account reasonably overall trends for sorption and diffusion of 10 radionuclides, and was then evaluated as being applicable for a wider range of radionuclides and for more complex fracture systems.

After TEPCO Fukushima-Daiichi NPS accident, new fuels and materials have been developed in the OECD/NEA member countries. The objective of the development is to have new fuels with enhanced accident tolerance, especially for severe accident conditions. For the new fuel development, similar to the conventional ones, many kinds of information are necessary to maintain the safety functions of the fuel. The fuel safety should be confirmed not only for severe accidents, but also for various conditions such as normal operation, design basis accidents, transportation and so on. Preparation of experimental databases with high reliability and analytical tools are also needed to confirm the safety of the new fuels. Therefore, test reactors and hot laboratories play important roles in the acquisition of in-reactor data which are the key information as the technical basis of safety judgement. In this presentation, safety requirements under various plant conditions which are considered in the new fuel development is explained. The importance of experiments using test reactors and laboratories for new fuel development is also explained including examples of JAEA facilities.
