| Abstract | This work focuses on the numerical modeling of coupled thermal, hydraulic and mechanical processes in transverse isotropic rock, with specific consideration of parallel computing aspects. We apply the previously developed parallel finite element scheme to analyze a real application, an in-situ heating test carried out in an Opalinus Clay layer of the Mont Terri underground laboratory. The definition of the problem is under the framework of the DECOVALEX-2015 project, an international research collaboration for advancing the understanding and mathematical modeling of coupled thermo-hydro-mechanical (THM) and thermo-hydro-chemical (THC) processes in geological systems. Three-dimensional studies of the aforementioned experiment considering transverse isotropic material properties of the Opalinus Clay layer in the test site result in very long computation times using a single computer processor. Results discussed in this work convince us that the present parallel finite method has a good scalability in the context of modeling three-dimensional coupled THM problems. |
