The paper presents the enhancement of an existing constitutive model for argillaceoushard soils-weak rocks for non-isothermal conditions, to be used in coupledthermo-hydro-mechanical (THM) simulations of underground excavations subjected totemperature variations within the context of deep geological nuclear waste disposal. Theproposed thermo-elastoplastic extension accounts for the effect of temperature on theyield and plastic potential functions, and on the elastic stiffness. The resulting modelis validated through the simulation of relevant non-isothermal laboratory tests reportedin the literature. The model is then applied to the coupled THM simulation of an insitu heating test conducted at the Meuse/Haute-Marne underground research laboratory,in Bure, France, excavated in the Callovo-Oxfordian claystone. Results show that theincorporation of thermal effects into the constitutive description of the host rock playsa significant role in the behaviour of the excavation when subjected to thermal loading,particularly in the evolution of the excavation damaged zone.
