Short summary
The work explores modelling challenges in fractured crystalline rock formations. Addressing safety criteria requires integrating intact rock and fracture properties accurately. The intricate 3D nature of fractures complicates numerical models. Various methods exist, but assumptions lead to uncertainties. The study evaluates modelling approaches with a special focus on their accuracy and efficiency. Comparative calculations aid in understanding their impact.
