Abstract:The creep tests of gypsum breccias are done;and the experimental creep curves and isochronous stress-strain curves are got,which display the properties of nonlinearity and accelerated creep. In order to describe these properties of gypsum breccias comprehensively,two viscous components of non-Newtonian fluid are put forward and are combined with conventional components to gain a new multiple rheological model. According to the new model,the corresponding one-dimensional and three-dimensional creep constitutive equations are deduced. Then the experimental creep curves are simulated using the new rheological model;and the results indicate that the new model can effectively describe the whole rheological process of gypsum breccias.
