Very slow creep tests on salt samples

Long-term creep tests have been performed on rock-salt and argillite samples under very small uniaxial loadings (σ = 0.02 to 0.1 MPa) . To minimize the effects of temperature variations, testing devices were set in a mine where temperature fluctuations are of the order of one-hundredth of a degre...
