Short summary
Crystalline rock is a potential candidate for storing nuclear waste in the deep geological underground in Germany. However, fractures within these rocks pose a challenge, as they can create pathways for fluids that might corrode barriers and release radioactive materials into the environment. The exact configuration of these fracture networks is often unknown. Our study aims to better understand and predict these networks by combining existing data with advanced modelling techniques.
