钙质胶结西域砾岩浸水力学特性劣化机制研究
Study on the Degradation Mechanism of the Mechanical Properties of Calcareous Cemented Xiyu Conglomerate Inundated with Water
西域砾岩广泛分布于新疆维吾尔自治区天山南北,针对其遇水易软化,物理力学性质变化影响库岸边坡变形与稳定的问题,以新疆维吾尔自治区天山南麓某工程钙质胶结西域砾岩为研究对象,通过不同浸水时间后单轴、三轴压缩试验,研究钙质胶结西域砾岩的应力‒应变曲线特征及变形破坏模式,并结合扫描电子显微镜(SEM),分析不同浸水时间后岩石微观结构变化特征,阐明钙质胶结西域砾岩力学特性劣化机制。结果表明:浸水作用对钙质胶结西域砾岩的力学性能影响显著,相较于干燥状态,浸水7、14、28 d后,单轴抗压强度下降了45.5%、65.6%、71.3%,浸水7 d岩样劣化效应尤为明显,浸水14 d后强度及变形参数劣化趋势逐渐缓慢;围压越大,劣化趋势越明显;随着浸水时间增长,钙质胶结西域砾岩的破坏模式由脆性向延性破坏特征转化,破坏时在砾石颗粒边缘位置处产生了绕砾发展裂纹和砾石颗粒劈裂破碎特征;浸水作用下钙质胶结西域砾岩的微观结构变化特征明显,岩样内部黏土矿物吸水膨胀及胶结物溶解破坏,使岩石结构由致密孔隙胶结结构逐渐向松散多孔结构发展,从而导致宏观上强度及变形参数的劣化。研究结果可为西域砾岩地区库岸边坡变形与稳定分析提供理论依据。
Objective Calcareous cemented Xiyu conglomerate readily softens upon contact with water, and its physical and mechanical properties change significantly after immersion, directly affecting the deformation behavior and stability of reservoir bank slopes. Based on X‒ray diffraction mineral composition analysis, uniaxial and triaxial compression tests are conducted to investigate the stress-strain characteristics and damage modes of calcareous cemented Xiyu conglomerate after different immersion durations. Combined with SEM microstructural analyses, these tests further clarify the mechanisms responsible for the deterioration of the mechanical properties of calcareous cemented Xiyu conglomerate. Methods Considering the natural storage conditions of calcareous cemented Xiyu conglomerate, this study simulated the inundation process of calcareous cemented Xiyu conglomerate bank slopes and conducted uniaxial and triaxial compression tests under different inundation durations (dry, 7, 14, and 28 days) and confining pressures (0, 0.5, 1.0, and 2.0 MPa). Stress‒strain curves were plotted based on the experimental data to analyze the influence of inundation time on the macroscopic mechanical parameters and failure modes of the calcareous cemented Xiyu conglomerate. Combined with SEM analysis, the macroscopic physical and mechanical properties of the calcareous cemented Xiyu conglomerate were examined to investigate the deterioration process and mechanism from a microscopic perspective under water immersion. Results and Discussions The main mineral compositions and their relative contents were obtained by analyzing the X‒ray diffraction mineral analysis spectra of the calcareous cemented Xiyu conglomerate samples. The macroscopic mechanical properties of the calcareous cemented Xiyu conglomerate changed significantly under uniaxial and triaxial compression tests, and the stress‒strain curves exhibited obvious mechanical property transition points, namely: the compaction stage, linear elastic stage, plastic deformation stage, failure stage, and residual stage. With the increase in water immersion time, the compaction section of the stress‒strain curve gradually increased, the slope of the elastic deformation section gradually decreased, the peak compressive strength progressively deteriorated, and the axial strain corresponding to the peak stress gradually increased, resulting in a strain-softening phenomenon. The strength and deformation parameters of the calcareous cemented Xiyu conglomerate deteriorated to different degrees, and the peak compressive strength decreased by 26.2% to 45.5%, 38.1% to 65.6%, and 55.8% to 71.3%, respectively, under different confining pressures after 7, 14, and 28 days of immersion. The elastic modulus and deformation modulus exhibited the same deterioration pattern as the peak compressive strength. The elastic modulus decreased by 0.1% to 42.5%, 42.6% to 58.0%, and 66.1% to 75.9%, respectively, whereas the deformation modulus decreased by 10.0% to 48.4%, 44.8% to 60.8%, and 66.9% to 76.4%, respectively. Overall, the deterioration rate was faster before 7 d of water immersion and gradually slowed after 14 days of immersion. In addition, the greater the confining pressure was, the more pronounced the deterioration trend became. After 7, 14, and 28 days of water immersion, the cohesion decreased by 13.9%, 40.0%, and 47.0%, respectively, while the internal friction angle decreased by 6.2%, 9.1%, and 20.4%, respectively. The deterioration of cohesion occurred more rapidly before 14 d of water immersion, and the deterioration tendency slowed and stabilized after 14 d of immersion, whereas the internal friction angle exhibited a nearly linear deterioration trend over time. In the dry state, the calcareous cemented Xiyu conglomerate exhibited a dense cemented structure. When the confining pressure was low, tensile splitting failure occurred. With the gradual increase in confining pressure, the failure mode transitioned from tensile failure to a tensile-shear mixed failure mode. Shear failure developed along the main rupture surface, and cracks developed around the gravel particles, accompanied by gravel particle splitting at their locations. With increasing water immersion time, the dissolution and expansion of mineral components weakened the cementing effect of the cemented structure, the specimens gradually became softer, and the calcareous cemented Xiyu conglomerate transformed from brittle to ductile failure characteristics. In the dry state, the particles of the calcareous cemented Xiyu conglomerate were connected through cementation, tiny primary cracks were present, and the microstructure was relatively dense. After water immersion, the mineral components of the cement gradually dissolved and expanded, resulting in the enlargement of tiny pores. The microcracks and pores within the specimens gradually developed, the cement between mineral particles gradually loosened, and the microstructure of the calcareous cemented Xiyu conglomerate gradually evolved from a dense pore structure to a loose porous structure, which manifested as macroscopic strength degradation and deformation. The microstructure of the calcareous cemented Xiyu conglomerate gradually developed from a dense pore-cemented structure to a loose porous structure, and the deterioration of the strength and deformation parameters was manifested at the macroscopic level. Conclusions Under submergence conditions, the dissolution and degradation of the calcium-cemented matrix in Xiyu conglomerate, together with the expansion of clay minerals caused by water absorption, lead to the gradual transformation of its microstructure from a dense cemented pore structure to a loose porous structure. This transformation is macroscopically manifested by the deterioration of strength and deformation characteristics, as well as changes in the damage mode. The results of this study provide a valuable reference for the deformation and stability analysis of bank slopes in Xiyu conglomerate regions.
