contents This study proposes a high-order multi-scale method tailored for time-dependent nonlinear thermo-electro-mechanical coupling problems of composite structures with highly spatial heterogeneity, which incorporate temperature-dependent material properties and Joule heating effect. By employing the multi-scale asymptotic approach and the Taylor series technique, a high-accuracy multi-scale asymptotic model featuring novel high-order correction terms is established for nonlinear multi-physics simulation of periodic solid structures. A local point-wise error analysis is derived to theoretically and physically illustrate the local balance preserving of heat quantity, electric charge and stress,thereby enabling high-accuracy multi-scale computation. Moreover, a global error estimation is obtained that provides an explicit convergence rate for high-order multi-scale solutions. Furthermore, an efficient numerical algorithm featuring with off-line and on-line stages is presented meticulously, accompanied by a corresponding error analysis. Numerical experiments are conducted to showcase the competitive advantages of the proposed method for simulating the time-dependent nonlinear thermo-electro-mechanical coupling problems with highly oscillatory and discontinuous coefficients, demonstrating superior numerical accuracy and reduced computational cost.
