Abstract: Oil sand is a dense granular material with interlocking fabric. As a strain-softening material, oil sand exhibits a more complex creep behavior than that of strain-hardening geomaterials. The creep behavior of oil sand ...

Abstract: Soil exhibits creep behavior, in which the deformation of soil develops with time at a state of constant effective stress. A series of triaxial compression creep tests was performed on a saturated till to investigate the ...
