This paper studies the accuracy of a technique which is capable of predicting and modeling a wide range of creep life in Ni-based superalloys. The θ-projection method was applied to characterize the creep behavior of the Ni-based superalloy IN-792 at 800 °C. Constant load creep tests have been carried out over a wide range of loads at the constant operating temperature. Creep curves were fitted using either 4-θ or 6-θ equation by the use of a nonlinear least-square technique. The results showed that both 4- and 6-θ projection parameters revealed a good linearity as a function of stress. Comparison of experimental creep curves with those predicted using both of the utilized θ-projection techniques showed that the techniques fit the experimental data at high strain values very well while the 6-θ approach describes much better the creep curves at low strain region.

This paper focused on long-term creep modeling for describing total creep curves of up to rupture for modified 9Cr-1Mo steel (G91). Creep data was obtained by a series of constant-load creep tests at 600°C. Three modified constitutive equations of modified power-law method (MPM), modified theta method (MTM) and modified omega method (MOM), described as a sum of a decaying primary creep and an accelerating tertiary creep, were proposed. A nonlinear least square fitting (NLSF) analysis was carried out on the basis of the creep data so that they provide the best fit to experimental data in optimizing parameter constants of the individual equation. Results of the NLSF analysis showed that in the lower stress regions of 160MPa (σ/σys<0.65), the MTM matched well with the experimental creep data compared with the MPM and MOM, but that in the higher stress regions of 160MPa (σ/σy > 0.65), the MPM revealed better agreement than the MTM and MOM. It was found that the MTM was superior in the modeling of long-term creep curves to the MPM and MOM. Long-term creep curves for the G91 steel were numerically modeled and its creep life was predicted by the MTM.

Thermomechanical and electrical properties of zirconia-based ceramics have led to a wide range of advanced and engineering ceramic applications like solid electrolyte in oxygen sensors, fuel cells and furnace elements and its low thermal conductivity has allowed its use for thermal barrier coatings for aerospace engine components. A comparison between CoNiCrAlY bond coat and zirconia plasma sprayed coatings on creep tests of the Ti-6Al-4V alloy was studied. The material used was commercial Ti-6Al-4V alloy. Yttria (8 wt.%) stabilized zirconia (YSZ) with a CoNiCrAlY bond coat was atmospherically plasma sprayed on Ti-6Al-4V substrates by Sulzer Metco Type 9 MB. Constant load creep tests were conducted on a standard creep machine in air on coated samples, at stress levels of 520 MPa at 500°C to evaluate the oxidation protection on creep of the Ti-6Al-4V alloy. Results indicate that the creep resistance of the ceramic coating was greater than metallic coating.

Portable products such as smartphones and tablets stay in the powered on condition for a majority of their operational life during which time the device internals are maintained at higher than ambient temperature. Thus, it would be expected for interconnects in portable products to be at a temperature high than room temperature when subjected to accidental drop or shock. Furthermore, electronics in missile-applications may be subjected to high strain rates after prolonged period of storage often at high temperature. Electronics systems including interconnects may experience high strain rates in the neighborhood of 1–100 per sec during operation at high temperature. However, the material properties of SAC305 leadfree solders at high strain rates and high operating temperatures are scarce after long-term storage. Furthermore, the solder interconnects in simulation of product drop are often modeled using elastic-plastic properties or linear elastic properties, neither of which accommodate the effect of operating temperature on the solder interconnect deformation at high operating temperature. SAC305 solders have been shown to demonstrate the significant degradation of mechanical properties including the tensile strength and the elastic modulus after exposure to high temperature storage for moderate periods of time. Previously, Anand’s viscoplastic constitutive model has been widely used to describe the inelastic deformation behavior of solders in electronic components under thermo-mechanical deformation. Uniaxial stress-strain curves have been plotted over a wide range of strain rates (ε̇ = 10, 35, 50, 75 /sec) and temperatures (T = 25, 50, 75, 100, 125°C). Anand viscoplasticity constants have been calculated by non-linear fitting procedures. In addition, the accuracy of the extracted Anand constants has been evaluated by comparing the model prediction and experimental data.

A previously proposed theory is specialized for the uniaxial state of stress and its prediction for creep and relaxation is analyzed in detail. Constant true stress and constant load creep tests are simulated in the presence and absence of thermal aging together with the constant strain relaxation test. The signs of the creep rate and its time derivative as well as the relaxation rate and its time derivative are introduced as criteria. The constant load creep test can reproduce the normal creep curves and nonclassical creep curves (ε˙ > 0; ε¨ > 0 for all ε and for σ0 > 0). The capabilities of the constant true stress test are limited to primary creep if the work-hardening slope is positive. When aging is introduced almost any creep curve can be reproduced in both tests. The importance of initial strain is discussed and demonstrated by room temperature creep tests on Type 304 Stainless Steel. It is suggested that the initial strains together with the creep curves be reported in the future. Poisson’s ratio in creep needs to be measured and tests are proposed which will enable a quantitative assessment of aging.

The creep behaviour of the solid solution strengthened nickel-based superalloy Haynes 230 has been investigated under constant load and temperature conditions on as received, after conventional solution treatment, and on overaged conditions. The experimental results have shown a very strong dependence of the creep curve shape with the applied stress/temperature: in the tests performed at high stresses/low temperatures, the primary/decelerating stage takes an important portion of the creep curve. At these test conditions, the accelerating creep is mainly caused by the increase of the applied stress with the strain as it happens in constant load creep tests. In the tests performed at low stresses/high temperatures, the primary stage is very small and the following accelerating creep is characterized by different accelerating creep stages. The analysis of the creep curves on the as received and overaged alloys, has shown that a large portion of the accelerating creep at low stresses/high temperatures is caused by microstructural instability.

This study aimed to model the long-term creep curves above 105 hours by implementing a nonlinear least square fitting (NLSF) of the Kachanov-Rabotnov (K-R) model. For this purpose, the short-term creep curves obtained from a series of creep tests at 950oC were used. In the NLSF of their full creep curves, the K-R model represented a poor match to the experimental curves, but the modified K-R one revealed a good agreement to them. The Monkman-Grant (M-G) strain represented the behavior of a stress dependency, but the 􀁏 parameter was constant with a stress independency. The 􀁏 value in the modified K-R model was 2.78. Long-term creep curves above 105 hours from short-term creep data were modeled by the modified K-R model.

Electronics in automotive underhood environments may be subjected to high temperatures in the neighborhood of 175°C while subjected to high strain rate mechanical loads of vibration. Portable products such as smartphones and tablets stay in the powered on condition for a majority of their operational life during which time the device internals are maintained at higher than ambient temperature.

This paper is concerned with the characterization of the OFHC copper flow stress at strain rates ranging from 10−3 s−1 to 106 s−1 considering the large strain and high temperature effects. Several uniaxial material tests with OFHC copper are performed at a wide range of strain rates from 10−3 s−1 to 103 s−1 by using a INSTRON 5583, a High Speed Material Testing Machine (HSMTM), and a tension split Hopkinson pressure bar. In order to consider the thermal softening effect, tensile tests at 25°C and 200°C are performed at strain rates of 10−3 s−1,101 s−1, and 102 s−1. A modified thermal softening model is considered for the accurate application of the thermal softening effect at high strain rates. The large strain behavior is challenged by using the swift power law model. The high strain rates behavior is fitted with the Lim–Huh model. The hardening curves are evaluated by comparing the final shape of the projectile from numerical simulation results with the Taylor impact tests.
