As mentioned in the previous chapter, in a one dimensional compression test on clay, under a constant load, the deformation usually appears to continue practically forever, even if the pore pressures have long been reduced to zero. Similar types of behavior are found in other materials, such as plastics and concrete. The phenomenon is usually denoted as creep.
