  2. Larson–Miller relation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Larson–Miller_relation

    F.R. Larson and J. Miller proposed that creep rate could adequately be described by the Arrhenius type equation: = / Where r is the creep process rate, A is a constant, R is the universal gas constant, T is the absolute temperature, and is the activation energy for the creep process.

  3. Creep (deformation) - Wikipedia

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

    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 large amounts of solid solution hardening, strain ...

  4. Creep-testing machine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Creep-testing_machine

    Creep is dependent on time so the curve that the machine generates is a time vs. strain graph. The slope of a creep curve is the creep rate dε/dt [citation needed] The trend of the curve is an upward slope. The graphs are important to learn the trends of the alloys or materials used and by the production of the creep-time graph, it is easier ...

    L. M. Kachanov [5] and Y. N. Rabotnov [6] suggested the following evolution equations for the creep strain ε and a lumped damage state variable ω: ˙ = ˙ ˙ = ˙ where ˙ is the creep strain rate, ˙ is the creep-rate multiplier, is the applied stress, is the creep stress exponent of the material of interest, ˙ is the rate of damage accumulation, ˙ is the damage-rate multiplier, and is ...

  6. Viscoelasticity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viscoelasticity

    When the stress is maintained for a shorter time period, the material undergoes an initial strain until a time , after which the strain immediately decreases (discontinuity) then gradually decreases at times > to a residual strain. Viscoelastic creep data can be presented by plotting the creep modulus (constant applied stress divided by total ...

  7. Strain-rate tensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strain-rate_tensor

    A two-dimensional flow that, at the highlighted point, has only a strain rate component, with no mean velocity or rotational component. In continuum mechanics, the strain-rate tensor or rate-of-strain tensor is a physical quantity that describes the rate of change of the strain (i.e., the relative deformation) of a material in the neighborhood of a certain point, at a certain moment of time.

  8. Viscoplasticity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viscoplasticity

    The classical creep curve represents the evolution of strain as a function of time in a material subjected to uniaxial stress at a constant temperature. The creep test, for instance, is performed by applying a constant force/stress and analyzing the strain response of the system.

  9. Thermomechanical analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermomechanical_analysis

    The recovery measurement time should be four times the creep time, so in this example the recovery time should be 4 h. Upon removal of the force the elastic component results in an immediate contraction. The viscoelastic recovery is exponential as the material slowly recovers some of the previously imparted creep strain. After recovery there is ...
