Due to its low permeability and excellent expansion characteristics, bentonite materials are considered to be the engineered barrier in Trans-Uranium (TRU) disposal facility. It is necessity to predict the mechanical behavior of bentonite using numerical simulation to evaluate the long-term performance of TRU disposal facility. In this paper, we simulated the saturation process of bentonite materials in TRU disposal facility from an initially unsaturated state. And we examined the mechanical behavior of bentonite buffer during the saturation process. This simulation result shows that Disposal waste is moved upward due to the difference of swelling pressure between buffer and backfill. And the facility existed in unsaturated state even under steady state conditions due to the entrapped air.
