EPS composite soil is one type of premixed lightweight fills studied by numerous researchers.However,one aspect that has not been fully understood is the creep behaviors which may have significant effect on the design and application of EPS composite soil.In this paper,the results of a series of oedometer creep tests and triaxial undrained creep tests on EPS composite soil were presented.Four main influencing factors were identified and their effects on the creep behaviors of EPS composite soil were studied.Three well established creep models,namely,Findley model,Singh & Mitchell model,and Mesri model,were used to simulate the creep behavior of EPS composite soil.This study shows that the Findley creep model fits the test results the best.A semi-empirical creep model was also proposed to model the creep behavior under axisymmetric conditions.In this model,the creep strain was divided into instant and viscous elastic strain as well as instant and viscous plastic strain which were simulated by element models and empirical equations,respectively.It was shown that the proposed creep model was able to precisely predict the creep strain of EPS composite soil.

海洋强国之路是早日实现“中国梦”的基石,提升全民海洋意识是实现海洋强国之路的首要任务。作为基层教育工作者,笔者认为要提升公民的海洋意识,应从娃娃抓起,在义务教育阶段尤其小学教育阶段广泛施教。  第一,要切实深入地在小学开展海洋意识的理论教育和实践活动。目前,很多小学生只知我国是一个国土辽阔的大陆国家,并不知道我国还是一个海洋国家,有大陆岸线1.84万公里,亟须在小学生中进行海洋国土意识教育。要让小
