Development and Demonstration of monitoring strategies and technologies for geological disposal (Modern2020)
Start date: Jun 1, 2015, End date: May 31, 2019,
The Modern2020 project aims at providing the means for developing and implementing an effective and efficient repository operational monitoring programme, taking into account the requirements of specific national programmes. The work allows advanced national radioactive waste disposal programmes to design monitoring systems suitable for deployment when repositories start operating in the next deca ...

Long-term performance of Engineered Barrier Systems (EBS) (PEBS)
Start date: Mar 1, 2010, End date: Feb 28, 2014,
The main aim of the project PEBS (Long-term Performance of the Engineered Barrier System) is to evaluate the sealing and barrier performance of the EBS with time, through development of a comprehensive approach involving experiments, model development and consideration of the potential impacts on long-term safety functions. The experiments and models cover the full range of conditions from initial ...

Monitoring Developments for safe Repository operation and staged closure (MODERN)
Start date: May 1, 2009, End date: Oct 31, 2013,
The MoDeRn project aims at providing a reference framework for the development and possible implementation of monitoring activities and associated stakeholder engagement during relevant phases of the radioactive waste disposal process, i.e. during site characterisation, construction, operation and staged closure, as well as a post-closure institutional control phase. Monitoring provides operators ...

A Preparatory phase proposal for the Square Kilometre Array (PrepSKA)
Start date: Apr 1, 2008, End date: Mar 31, 2012,
The Square Kilometre Array (SKA) will be one of the largest scientific projects ever undertaken. It is a machine designed to answer some of the big questions of our time: what is Dark Energy? Was Einstein right about gravity? What is the nature of dark matter? Can we detect gravitational waves? When and how did the first stars and galaxies form? What was the origin of cosmic magnetism? How do Eart ...
