Unified Description

Creep crack growth (CCG) rate has been organized frequently by C* or Ct parameter However, crack behavior of early stage under unsteady state condition has not been explained. Crack energy density (CED), which has been proposed as a parameter that can provide a unified description of crack behavior with no restriction on constitutive equation, can give the general expression about creep crack growth rate. By applying Ct and the concept of CED to the results, we showed that creep crack growth rate for all ranges of creep can be explained in a unified way by CED and its derivatives. Moreover, the physical meaning of the Ct is clarified in the discussion.

Applied Stresses

This paper is to evaluate the creep crack growth rate (CCGR) of the type 316SS series: 316SS, 316FR and 316LN, and to apply a creep ductility model. A number of the data are collected through wide literature surveys and experiment, and evaluated by the C* parameter. The results of the CCGR data were nearly matched with a small scattering band regardless of the different applied stresses, temperatures and test specimens configuration. In the CCGR, type 316FR and 316LN steels were slower than type 316SS. Type 316SS showed a better agreement in the application of the creep ductility model than the type 316FR and 316LN steels.

Creep Crack Growth Rate

In this paper, a series of statistical studies were conducted on creep crack growth behavior of Grade 9Cr-1Mo steel for next generation reactor. Creep crack growth tests were performed on pre-cracked compact tension (CT) specimens under the applied load ranges from 3800 to 5000N at the identical temperature condition of 600oC. The creep crack growth behavior has been analyzed statistically using the empirical equation between crack growth rate da/dt and C* parameter, namely da/dt=B(C*)q. First, the determination methods of B and q obtained from experiments were investigated by the least square fitting method and the mean value method. The probability distribution functions of B and q have been investigated using the normal, log-normal and Weibull distribution. The constant B and q are followed well 2-parameter Weibull. Second, the creep crack growth rate data were generated by Monte-Carlo simulation method assuming the 2-parameter Weibull in B and q parameters. The probability distribution of creep crack growth rate for arbitrary C* parameter values seems to follow well Weibull distribution.
