气候变化下高寒区裂隙岩石破裂机制及致灾模式
Fracture Propagation Characteristics and Catastrophic Modes of Fractured Rock in Alpine Region under Climate Change
,
气候变化下高寒区裂隙岩石受长期冻融循环作用而产生劣化,极易诱发边坡突发失稳.为分析其冻融循环作用下的破裂机制及相应的致灾模式,开展了高寒区现场破坏模式调查及不同裂隙长度的寒区花岗岩与石英砂岩冻融循环试验,借助声发射系统和应变测试系统分析了端部裂隙扩展全过程的声发射和微应变曲线变化规律,基于试验和理论讨论了灾害形成机制.结果表明:高寒区冻融作用下的裂隙岩石致灾模式包含冻胀型、融沉型、冻融循环型三大类.针对于广泛发育的冻胀型模式设计的岩石试验结果显示,随着冻融循环次数的增加,试样的裂纹均从裂隙端部垂直向下扩展,无偏转、次生现象,花岗岩试样初期裂纹扩展更为明显,但石英砂岩裂隙会更早贯通.花岗岩声发射计数突增现象前期出现多,后期出现少,最大微应变呈现台阶式增大现象.石英砂岩声发射计数前期趋于平稳,随冻融次数增多,计数频率迅速增加,最大微应变呈现由初期平稳变化到快速升高趋势.断裂力学分析表明冻融条件下裂隙岩体的扩展特征主要受岩性和裂隙长度的影响,因此高寒区灾害的形成受控于岩性和裂隙扩展.研究结果为寒区裂隙岩体破裂演化及致灾模式提供理论依据.
Under the influence of climate change, frost-weathered rock masses in high-altitude regions are prone to deterioration due to long-term freeze-thaw cycles. This deterioration can lead to sudden slope instability. To analyze the fracture mechanisms and corresponding hazard patterns under freeze-thaw cycles, it conducted field investigations on failure modes in high-altitude regions and freeze-thaw tests on fractured granite and quartz sandstone with varying crack lengths. By utilizing acoustic emission (AE) systems and strain testing systems, it analyzed the entire process of crack propagation at the end of the fissures, observing AE and microstrain curve variations. Based on experimental and theoretical discussions, it identified three main hazard patterns for fractured rock masses under freeze-thaw conditions: frost heaving, thaw subsidence, and freeze-thaw cycling. For the widely observed frost heaving pattern, the rock sample tests revealed that crack propagation occurred vertically downward from the crack ends, without deviation or secondary phenomena. While granite samples exhibited more pronounced initial crack propagation, quartz sandstone fissures tended to connect earlier. The AE count for granite showed an initial increase followed by a decrease, while quartz sandstone exhibited a steady count initially, which rapidly increased with more freeze-thaw cycles. Fracture mechanics analysis indicates that the expansion characteristics of fissured rock masses under freeze-thaw conditions are primarily influenced by rock type and crack length. Consequently, the formation of hazards in high-altitude regions is controlled by rock type and crack propagation. The research provides a theoretical basis for understanding the evolution of fractured rock masses and their hazard patterns in cold regions.
