• Weathering and Deterioration (2011, background): “The deterioration starts by an initial stage of insolation that leads to the progressive loss of cohesion along grain boundaries (Siegesmund et al. 1999, 2000) caused by the different thermal expansion coefficients of the rock-forming minerals during either heating or cooling (Fredrich and Wong…”
• Influence of mineralogy on granite decay induced by temperature increase: Experimental observations and stress simulation (2015, unknown): “This is typically the case ofmarble, inwhich thermal decay is deeply dependent on the fabric and orientation of the very anisotropic calcite crystals (Ruedrich et al., 2002; Ruedrich, 2003; Siegesmund et al., 2000; Ozguven and Ozcelik, 2014).”
