This paper presents a review of developing of creep damage constitutive equations for high chromium alloy (such as P91 alloy). Firstly, it briefly introduces the background of creep damage for P91 materials. Then, it summarizes the typical creep damage constitutive equations developed and applied for P91 alloy, and the main deficiencies of KRH (Kachanov-Robatnov-Hayhurst) type and Xus type constitutive equations. Finally it suggests the directions for future work. This paper contributes to the knowledge for the developing creep damage constitutive equations for the specific material.

This paper reports a critical summary of literature review of creep damage constitutive equations. Firstly, it introduces the general background on the creep damage in low alloy stainless steel and weldment. Then, it summarizes the typical creep damage constitutive equations for this material available from public literature and discusses the deficiencies existed in the popular creep damage constitutive equations. Finally it outlines the approach to be used in the developing a new set of creep damage constitutive equation and the directions of future work.

The creep behavior of 2.25Cr-1Mo-0.25V ferritic steel was investigated using a set of physically-based creep damage constitutive equations. The material constants were determined according to the creep experimental data, using an efficient genetic algorithm. The user-defined subroutine for creep damage evolution was developed based on the commercial finite element software ANSYS and its user programmable features (UPFs), and the numerical simulation of the stress distribution and the damage evolution of the semi V-type notched specimen during creep were studied. The results showed that the genetic algorithm is a very efficient optimization approach for the parameter identification of the creep damage constitutive equations, and finite element simulation based on continuum damage mechanics can be used to analyze and predict the creep damage evolution under multi-axial stress states.

The paper is concerned with the representation of the relationship that exists, for a given material and temperature and for small deformations, between histories of applied stress and the observed strain and the accompanying changes in internal structure of the material. Emphasis is given to creep damage in metals as a vehicle for illustration of the main ideas introduced in the paper. In particular, the role played by irreducible even rank tensors in the representation of internal structure is discussed and clarified. The restrictions placed by thermodynamics on constitutive equations are considered and the use of potentials in these equations is examined and criticized.

This review paper mainly consists of from two aspects: (a) the evolution of the cavitation damage equation from Dyson to current application in high Cr steels by traditional techniques; (b) quantitation analyses of cavitation behavior in brass, copper, dual phase steel from X-ray microtomtograph. Though there is a lack of experimental data for high Cr steels by X-ray microtomography currently, but (b) has provided reference value for studying creep cavitation behavior in high Cr steels. This paper will be the fundamental of development new creep damage constitutive equation through quantitation analyses of X-ray tomography.

Deformation and damage of nuclear power station fuel element shells under irradiation and cyclic loading due vibrations are studied. Constitutive equations include dependencies for a creep-damage equation with a scalar damage parameter, as well as terms for thermal and irradiation creep strains, elastic, thermal, and swelling strains. The acceleration of the creep-damage process due to cyclic variation of internal pressure is considered with a dynamic creep model, for which constitutive equations are derived using the method of asymptotic expansions and averaging over a period of cyclic loading. Stress and strain states in the fuel element shell are determined by use of an in-house finite element method creep-damage code for shells of revolution. Results show the essential variation in the initially symmetric fuel element shell form, as well as the acceleration of creep-damage processes due to the cyclic pressure.
