Wells
- Well tightness tests (design, performance & back-analysis)
- Determination of maximum allowable pressure, including complex cement behavior and loading scenario
Salt mine
- Back-analysis of a mine collapse
Earthquakes
- Computation of earthquakes effects on underground structures (wells, galleries)
Creep tests
- Creep tests under very small deviatoric stresses
