  2. Creep (deformation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Creep_(deformation)

    Creep behavior can be split into three main stages. In primary, or transient, creep, the strain rate is a function of time. In Class M materials, which include most pure materials, primary strain rate decreases over time. This can be due to increasing dislocation density, or it can be due to evolving grain size. In class A materials, which have ...

  3. Larson–Miller relation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Larson–Miller_relation

    • The creep resistance of hard and brittle materials was significantly influenced by small amounts of strain, although visible creep cavities or cracks were not observed. • Laboratory-damaged or ex-service materials showed negligible primary or secondary creep during subsequent testing.

  4. Superalloy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superalloy

    Oxidation or corrosion resistance is provided by elements such as aluminium and chromium. Superalloys are often cast as a single crystal in order to eliminate grain boundaries, which decrease creep resistance (even though they may provide strength at low temperatures). The primary application for such alloys is in aerospace and marine turbine ...

    Moreover, value of is related to the resistance toward the necking. Usually, the value of is at the range of 0-0.1 at room temperature and as high as 0.8 when the temperature is increased. By combining the 1) and 2), we can create the ultimate relation as below:

  6. Ceramic matrix composite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ceramic_matrix_composite

    The three main creep stages are governed by the creep mismatch ratio. During primary creep, internal stresses are transferred allowing the CMR to approach unity, as well as the secondary creep stage. The tertiary creep stage, where failure occurs, can be governed by fiber creep, where failure occurs due to fiber fracture, or matrix creep, which ...

  7. Viscoplasticity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viscoplasticity

    In viscoplasticity, the development of a mathematical model heads back to 1910 with the representation of primary creep by Andrade's law. [9] In 1929, Norton [10] developed a one-dimensional dashpot model which linked the rate of secondary creep to the stress. In 1934, Odqvist [11] generalized Norton's law to the multi-axial case.

  8. Refractory metals - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Refractory_metals

    The alloy exhibits a higher creep resistance and strength at high temperatures, making service temperatures of above 1060 °C possible for the material. The high resistivity of Mo-30W, an alloy of 70% molybdenum and 30% tungsten, against the attack of molten zinc makes it the ideal material for casting zinc. It is also used to construct valves ...

  9. Properties of concrete - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Properties_of_concrete

    Short-duration forces (such as wind or earthquakes) do not cause creep. Creep can sometimes reduce the amount of cracking that occurs in a concrete structure or element, but it also must be controlled. The amount of primary and secondary reinforcing in concrete structures contributes to a reduction in the amount of shrinkage, creep and cracking ...
