DOE must assess the impact that specific waste components have on waste characteristics (40 CFR 194.24(b)), and DOE must provide sufficient overall waste inventory information for use in the PA, specifically for those components deemed important to repository performance. Section 194.24(a) of the Compliance Criteria presents the inventory reporting requirements that DOE must meet to ensure that sufficient information is available for use in performance assessment.","PeriodicalId":132980,"journal":{"name":"Geological Aspects of Hazardous Waste Management","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-07-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125969013","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

From earthquake scenario simulations to mantle convection or geophysical data processing, the dynamics of the solid Earth can be captured by means of large scale computer models. To that goal, at BSC there is a continuous effort to develop the best strategies that combine accurate mathematical algorithms, a sound physical interpretation of geophenomena and state-of-the-art computing capacity.
