In materials science, creep (sometimes called cold flow) is the tendency of a solid material to undergo slow deformation while subject to persistent mechanical stresses. It can occur as a result of long-term exposure to high levels of stress that are still below the yield strength of the material.

2024年1月15日 · Creep is a process of applied stress at elevated temperatures greater than 40-50 percent of the absolute melting temperature, resulting in plastic deformation of the part. Large grain size reduces creep and is partially the reason that castings have preferred creep properties over wrought products of the same nominal composition.

2024年10月22日 · Creep, the gradual deformation of materials under sustained stress, presents challenges in construction and engineering. If not properly understood and accounted for, it can lead to structural failure over time. Understanding creep is essential for engineers and architects when selecting materials for various applications.

When material is subjected to constant load over a prolonged period of time, its deformation gradually progresses leading to failure of the material. This phenomenon of material failure is called creep. The creep deformation will be permanent even if the stresses are below yielding point of the material.

2023年4月6日 · When a material is put under a lot of stress for a long time, creep, a mechanical deformation type, can occur. Although it happens at a slower rate than other types, creep deformation can still make a material fail.

At elevated temperatures and constant stress or load, many materials continue to deform at a slow rate. This behavior is called creep. At a constant stress and temperature, the rate of creep is approximately constant for a long period of time.

When a material is subjected to a stress that is greater than or equal to its yield stress, the material deforms plastically. When the stress is below this level, then in principle it should only deform elastically.

Creep is a time-dependent deformation of a material while under an applied load that is below its yield strength. It is most often occurs at elevated temperature, but some materials creep at room temperature. Creep terminates in rupture if steps are not taken to bring to a halt.

Creep is time-dependent plastic deformation that is usually significant only at high temperatures. Figure 8.1 illustrates typical creep behavior. As soon as the load is applied, there is an instantaneous elastic response, followed by period of transient creep (Stage I).

Creep behavior refers to the tendency of materials to deform permanently under the influence of constant stress over time. This phenomenon is particularly significant in high-temperature ...
