v7.32.113 WTNP113 - Restoring an alveolus

Summary:

The test presented here makes it possible to verify the correct functioning of the operators used to solve the equations of flow in an unsaturated medium. This test corresponds to test 3.2 of the qualification plan for project ALLLIANCES [bib1].

It represents the evolution of the water saturation of the medium around a storage cell. Two phases are taken into account, a desaturation phase during the operation of the underground structure and a restoration phase after the backfilling of the alveoli gallery.
