Study on Shear Creep Characteristics of the Discontinuities with Different 3D Morphologies

The rheological phenomenon of rock mass affects the long-term safety of rock mass engineering. In this study, gneiss samples with different 3D morphologies are prepared by splitting tests and are tested through multi-step creep tests. The long-term strength of rock discontinuities is determined by u...
