Abstract

In the framework of the research for the thermo-hydro-mechanical effects of the clay host rock of a deep repository a numerical model to analyse the rock behaviour in response to heating was developed. The paper shows the developement of a 3D Thermal-Hydraulic-Mechanical (THM) simulator by coupling parametric modeling and implicit FE simulation environment in ANSYS. To calibrate the numerical model to the in-situ experimental results, powerfull methods of sensitivity analysis using optimized stochastic sampling strategies and optimization algorithms where used.
