循环作用对马蹄寺石窟群岩体性能的影响

马蹄寺石窟群地处河西走廊中部,气候条件十分恶劣。由于常年受到温度、湿度、酸碱盐等作用的影响,石窟岩体性能出现了不同程度的劣化现象。通过开展室内模拟试验,研究以上多种恶劣环境的循环作用对于岩体抗压强度、波速、质量的影响规律,同时使用X射线衍射仪(X-ray diffraction,XRD)、X射线荧光光谱(X-ray fluorescence,XRF)和扫描电子显微镜(scanning electron microscope,SEM)对循环作用过程中样品的矿物组分、元素含量和微观形貌进行分析研究。研究结果表明,循环作用使样品中的长石类矿物和方解石含量降低,黏土类矿物含量增加,胶结程度下降,孔隙逐渐发展成为横向微裂隙,导致样品的性能出现不同程度的劣化现象。循环作用对岩体性能的影响程度从大到小依次为冻融循环、耐盐循环、耐碱循环、耐酸循环和温湿循环。

Cycling Effect on Rock Mass Properties of Mati Temple Grottoes

Mati temple grottoes located in Gansu Corridor, the weather conditions of this area are harsh. The properties of rock mass got to worse due to several effects such as temperature, humidity, acid, alkali and salt. Simulation tests were used to study the relationship between the properties of rock mass and cycling tests, and XRD, XRF and SEM were also used to study the composition and morphology of the samples. The results show that the properties of samples weakened due to the changes of mineral contents and micro-structure during the cycling tests. The influences from greatest to least are free-thawing cycles, salt resistance cycles, acid resistance cycles, alkali resistance cycles and temperature-humidity cycles.
