  2. Creep (deformation) - Wikipedia

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

    The phenomenological equation which describes Harper–Dorn creep is = where ρ 0 is dislocation density (constant for Harper–Dorn creep), D v is the diffusivity through the volume of the material, G is the shear modulus and b is the Burgers vector, σ s, and n is the stress exponent which varies between 1 and 3.

  3. Constitutive equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constitutive_equation

    The first constitutive equation (constitutive law) was developed by Robert Hooke and is known as Hooke's law.It deals with the case of linear elastic materials.Following this discovery, this type of equation, often called a "stress-strain relation" in this example, but also called a "constitutive assumption" or an "equation of state" was commonly used.

    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 ...

    In the first equation N 0 represents the number of cycles to crack initiation, ∆W represents inelastic work density, K 1 and K 2 are material model constants. In the second equation, da/dN represents the crack prorogation rate, ∆W represents inelastic work density, K 3 and K 4 are material model constants. In this case the crack propagation ...

    Stress Intensity Equation. As the fibrils in the crack begin to rupture the crack will advance in either a stable, unstable or critical growth depending on the toughness of the material. To accurately determine the stability of a crack growth and R curve plot should be constructed. A unique tip of fracture mode is called stick/slip crack growth.

  7. Deformation (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deformation_(engineering)

    Subscript 0 denotes the original dimensions of the sample. The SI derived unit for stress is newtons per square metre, or pascals (1 pascal = 1 Pa = 1 N/m 2), and strain is unitless. The stress–strain curve for this material is plotted by elongating the sample and recording the stress variation with strain until the sample fractures. By ...

    Then the differential equations reduce to a finite set of equations (usually linear) with finitely many unknowns. In other contexts one may be able to reduce the three-dimensional problem to a two-dimensional one, and/or replace the general stress and strain tensors by simpler models like uniaxial tension/compression, simple shear, etc.

  9. Talk:Creep (deformation) - Wikipedia

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

    The basic equation for creep (from "materials science and engineering an introduction" by william callister) is strain rate = K2 * (stress)^n * e^(-Qc/RT) , where Qc is the "activation energy" for creep, n and K2 are constant fitting parameters for the material in question, R is our favorite gas constant and T is temperature. so even if we're ...
