Résumé : This paper presents a highly-coupled thermo-plasticity model for unsaturated soils. The effect of temperature on the mechanics of unsaturated soils is briefly addressed. Then the equations of the developed model, so-called ACMEGTS, are detailed. Finally, the model is validated by the means of comparisons with experiments. This constitutive model constitutes an effectivetoolfor modelling the thermo-hydro-mechanical (THM) behaviour of geomaterials involved in the confinement of nuclear waste disposal. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2013.
