Creep Energy Evolution of Red-Bed Soft Rocks in South China under Chemical-Stress-Seepage Coupling by Shuguang Zhang, Fanyao Peng, Yingbo Li, Zhifeng Liu, Wenbo Liu

“…The red-bed soft rocks in South China have obvious creep characteristics and are prone to engineering geological disasters such as landslide and foundation settlement under the action of rainfall, groundwater, and load. In order to reveal its creep characteristics and mechanism under complex conditions, a step-loading creep test was carried out under chemical-stress-seepage coupling, and the energy evolution law of the whole creep process was analyzed based on linear energy storage and energy dissipation theory. …”
