Creep Experimental Study of Rocks Containing Weak Interlayer Under Multilevel Loading and Unloading Cycles

Using the cyclic loading and unloading method, rheological tests of intact sandstones and composite sandstones containing a weak interlayer (WI) with inclination angles 15°, 30°, 45°, and 60° under different axial loading were carried out. The decay creep time, steady-state creep strain rate, instan...
