Thermomechanical evolution of the movement of 'Séchilienne' since the last quaternary glacial phase
The Sechilienne landslide is located thirty kilometers at the Southeast of Grenoble on the Southern edge of the massif of Belledonne. It affects the rock slope on the right bank of the Romanche alpine valley shaped by many cycles of glaciation and deglaciation and which was completely covered by the...

The Sechilienne landslide is located thirty kilometers at the Southeast of Grenoble on the Southern edge of the massif of Belledonne. It affects the rock slope on the right bank of the Romanche alpine valley shaped by many cycles of glaciation and deglaciation and which was completely covered by the glacier during the last glacial phase. The oversteepening of the slopes and the deepening of the foot of the slope associated with the phenomenon of debutressing affecting the slope and corresponding to the lateral stress release resulting from ice melting would be so predominant factors in the initiation and development of the Sechilienne landslide. However the recent temporal constraints obtained on the scarp showed a delayed motion relative to the initiation and deglaciation suggest initiation during the Holocene climatic Optimum after a sudden climate change. The initiation and evolution of large movements of rock slopes in mountainous area may be the result of the contribution of different geological factors (fracturing , lithology or tectonic regime) , geomorphology (relief, slope) but also external forcing factors such as earthquakes , permafrost , hydrological changes , the glacier disappearance or climatic effects.
