Directionally solidified (DS) Ni-base superalloys have become a commonly used material in gas turbine components. Controlled solidification during the material manufacturing process leads to a special alignment of the grain boundaries within the material. This alignment results in different material properties dependent on the orientation of the material. When used in gas turbine applications t...

materials exhibit significant creep behavior at temperatures above 40% of their absolute melt temperature. lead, tin and their alloys are such materials which experience significant creep behavior in room temperature. one of the most important applications of the tin-lead alloys is soldering electronic circuits in electronic industry, and for lead are isolation walls and wet batteries. room tem...

Creep can be dangerous for electromechanical, electronic and electrical connections, networks and devices. Recently, the metal matrix composites (MMC’s) are generally used for designing the electromechanical and electrical systems and devices due to their advantages. Therefore, analysis of the creep behavior is necessary and important for safe designing the fibrous composite devices. For achiev...

This paper presents a review of creep deformation and rupture mechanisms of low Cr-Mo alloy for the development of its creep damage constitutive equations under lower stress. The most popular Kachanov-Robatnov-Hayhurst (KRH) formulation was not necessarily developed and calibrated for low stress and cannot depict the creep strain accurately under multi-axial state of stress due to the three-dim...

Time-dependent creep analysis is presented for the calculation of stresses and displacements of axisymmetric thick-walled cylindrical pressure vessels made of functionally graded material (FGM). For the purpose of time-dependent stress analysis in an FGM pressure vessel, material creep behavior and the solutions of the stresses at a time equal to zero (i.e. the initial stress state) are needed....

Tensile and creep properties of new austenitic steel Sanicro 25 at room temperature and operating temperature 700 °C were investigated by testing on miniature specimens. The results were correlated with testing on conventional specimens. Very good agreement of results was obtained, namely in yield and ultimate strength, as well as short-term creep properties. Although the creep rupture time was...

This paper presents the results of channel cracking experiments performed on a multilayered structure. Room temperature creep behavior of a metallic underlayer was studied by using a newly developed channel cracking method. By the analysis of a channel crack propagating under tensile load in an elastic Si3N4 topical layer, the creep properties of an aluminum underlayer were determined. The expe...

In the process of heavy oil thermal recovery, the creep of strata can often be accelerated due to injection pressure, the temperature of steam, the structural characteristics of rock itself and other factors. However, the effect of creep in strata may cause various types of damage in underground mining, such as fracture or deformation of oil casings, and so on. The mechanism of fluid–structure ...

The new stand called DURAMETR with a computer program based on LabVIEW software to investigate textile creep is described. An analysis of filament creep under constant load is presented. A comparative analysis of changes of filament strain under constant load obtained from DURAMETR, and the INSTRON tester which uses the XII cyclic program is presented.
