Abstract
Studying the creep–fatigue interaction of the coarse-grained soil (CGS) is very important for safety assessment and disaster prevention in subgrade engineering. Current research work is mainly focused on single creep or fatigue deformation. In this paper, a new creep–fatigue interaction model is established to predict the creep–fatigue interaction deformation of different gradation CGS based on the rheological mechanics and the interactive relationship between creep and fatigue complex compliance method. Triaxial creep–fatigue interaction tests of different gradations CGS under different average stresses and frequencies were conducted to verify the new creep–fatigue interaction model. Research results show that for the creep–fatigue and fatigue–creep interaction, the fatigue deformation is always larger than the creep deformation under the same stress level. For the creep–fatigue multi-interaction, the second creep and fatigue deformation are always smaller than the first creep and fatigue deformation. The results of the triaxial creep–fatigue interaction tests verify the validity of this new model.
