“…Table 2 lists all of the fitted shear creep parameters under different σ as well as R-Square and illustrates that the fitted shear creep parameters are the functions of σ and increase with σ. Therefore, the shear rheological Equation (1) can express the relationships between shear stress τ, shear displacement s, compressive stress σ, and time t, i.e., τ = τ(s, σ, t) and can be rewritten as Equation (2), i.e., direct shear rheological constitutive model, where the expressions of K1(σ), K2(σ), β1(σ), and β2(σ) are obtained by fitting data in Table 2 [20] and described by Equation (3).…”
