Effect of thermal cycles on rock cliff deformation. Monitoring and interpretation

Résumé

Climatic actions are one of the factors controlling the evolution of slopes, this paper is devoted to a specific effect, relatively little studied, related to the effect of climate-driven temperature changes on rock massif deformation. The particularity of the study is to focus on permeable rocks and Temperatures varying in a range which discards freeze/thaw effects. Research has been carried out in relation with the analysis of the real case of a limestone cliff located in the Périgord region, the massif was highly instrumented, results show a slow cyclic accumulation of deformations with time, essentially synchronic with thermal cycles. An advanced constitutive model, specifically developed to capture rock degradation due to the differential expansion of the main minerals composing the rock, has been developed. It has been calibrated on experimental results obtained in the laboratory on block samples tested in a climatic chamber for a long series (several months) of daily thermal cycles. Deformation and shear wave velocity were monitored during the test. Model shows a good agreement with laboratory measurements.
