Soil and regolith creep have been analyzed for at least the last 140 years, using many
methodological configurations and temporal and spatial scales. The general concept of …

Bentonites are considered as a suitable buffer material for the high-level radioactive waste
disposal. The long-term stability of the hydromechanical properties of the bentonite barrier at …

To identify the unknown values of the parameters of Burger's constitutive law, commonly
used for the evaluation of the creep behavior of the soft soils, this paper demonstrates a …

Time-dependent stress-strain behaviour significantly influences the compressibility
characteristics of the clayey soil. In this paper, a series of oedometer tests were conducted in …

This paper examines the consolidation and settlement behaviour of soft clay deposits
treated with granular columns (single and in groups). Two Rowe cell loading chambers were …

This study concerns the creep impact on strength parameters of the selected very cohesive
soils (PI= 30–70%). The analysis refers to Neogene clays characterized by a complex …

Prediction of the long-term behavior of soft clayey soils after construction is of paramount
importance for civil and geotechnical engineers. Deformations on the bedded layers occur …

Creep of soils has a significant impact on mechanical properties. The one-dimensional
consolidation creep test, thermal analysis test, scanning electron microscope (SEM) test …

In the present study, various shapes of laboratory consolidation curves were numerically
reproduced using a four-parametric sigmoid function. Sixteen consolidation curves were …

The study concerns soil creep deformation in multistage triaxial stress tests under drained
conditions. High resolution X-ray computed microtomography (XμCT) was involved in …
