The effect of adhesive interlining on the creep behavior of a woven fabric in the bias direction was investigated. Three-element viscoelastic models were used to approximate the creep behavior of a face fabric and adhesive interlining. The creep model of a laminated fabric comprised a six-element model in which two three-element models are connected in parallel with the three-element model. Creep tests were carried out using face fabrics, adhesive interlinings, and their laminated fabrics without and with bonding adhesive interlining by hanging samples in the 45° bias direction under their own weight for 7 days. Creep strains of face fabrics bonded with adhesive interlining were found to be weaker than those of the face fabrics. The creep behavior for the face and interlining fabrics could be approximated using the three-element viscoelastic model with appropriate parameters. The experimental creep behavior of a laminated fabric without bonding was similar to the theoretical behavior. However, the experimental creep of laminated fabrics with bonding interlining was less than the calculated creep, owing to the increase in stiffness due to the adhesive. By revising the six-element model with the strains just after hanging and for 2 days, it was possible to predict the creep strain over 7 days.

Long-term stability and safety of the Bayer red mud (BRM) disposal field is very important for the local residents’ life, which necessitates the knowledge of its creep behavior. In order to investigate the creep behavior of BRM, a series of triaxial drained creep tests were conducted by using an improved triaxial creep apparatus. The results indicate that the creep behavior of BRM is significant with confining and deviatoric stresses being critical factors. The creep strain is in a nonlinear relationship with stress and time, and a larger deviator stress will lead to a larger creep strain. The main failure mechanism of BRM is plastic shear, accompanied by a significant compression and ductile dilatancy. Based on the test results, two well-established creep models, the Burgers creep model and Singh–Mitchell creep model, were used to comparatively analyze the creep behavior of the Bayer red mud under a certain stress level. Then, an improved Burgers creep damage constitutive model with the addition of a damage variable was proposed, whose parameters were also analyzed in detail. The comparison of the calculated values of the creep model and the experimental values shows that the proposed creep damage model can better describe the instant elastic deformation, attenuation creep, steady-state creep, and accelerated creep stages of the Bayer red mud.

Constant strain-rate plastic straining followed by creep tests were conducted to investigate the effect of prior plastic straining on the subsequent creep behavior of 304 stainless steel at room temperature. The effects of plastic strain and plastic strain-rate were delineated by a specially designed test procedure, and it is found that both factors have a strong influence on the subsequent creep deformation. A creep model combining the two factors is then developed. The predictions of the model are in good agreement with the test results.

The inelastic deformation behavior of PMR-15 neat resin, a high-temperature thermoset polymer, was investigated at 288°C. The effect of loading rate on monotonic stress-strain behavior as well as the effect of prior stress rate on creep behavior were explored. Positive nonlinear rate sensitivity was observed in monotonic loading. Creep response was found to be significantly influenced by prior stress rate. The effect of loading history on creep was studied in stepwise creep tests, where specimens were subjected to a constant stress rate loading followed by unloading to zero stress with intermittent creep periods on both loading and unloading paths. The strain-time response was strongly influenced by prior deformation history. Negative creep was observed on the unloading path. In addition, the behavior of the material was characterized in terms of a nonlinear viscoelastic model by means of creep and recovery tests at 288°C. The model was employed to predict the response of the material under monotonic loading/unloading and multistep load histories.

The development of fractures, which determine the complexity of coal creep characteristics, is the main physical property of coal relative to other rocks. This study conducted a series of multistage creep tests to investigate the creep behavior of coal under different stress levels. A negative elastic modulus and a non-Newtonian component were introduced into the classical Nishihara model based on the theoretical analysis of the experimental results to propose a nonlinear viscoelastic–plastic creep model for describing the non-decay creep behavior of coal. The validity of the model was verified by experimental data. The results show that this improved model can preferably exhibit decelerating, steady state, and accelerating creep behavior during the non-decay creep process. The fitting accuracy of the improved model was significantly higher than that of the classical Nishihara model. Given that acceleration creep is a critical stage in predicting the instability and failure of coal, its successful description using this improved model is crucial for the prevention and control of coal dynamic disasters.

Rock creep behavior is crucial in many rock engineering projects. Different approaches have been proposed to model rock creep behavior; however, many cannot reproduce tertiary creep (i.e., accelerating strain rates leading to rock failure). In this work, a discrete element model (DEM) is employed, in conjunction with the rate process theory [Kuhn MR, Mitchel JK. Modelling of soil creep with the discrete element method. Eng Computations. 1992;9(2):277–287] to simulate rock creep. The DEM numerical sample is built using a mixture of contact models between particles that combines the Flat Joint Contact Model and the Linear Model. Laboratory uniaxial compression creep tests conducted on intact slate samples are used as a benchmark to validate the methodology. Results demonstrate that, when properly calibrated, DEM models combined with the rate process theory can reproduce all creep stages observed in slate rock samples in the laboratory, including and without using constitutive models that incorporate an explicit dependence of strain rate with time. The DEM results also suggest that creep is associated to damage in the samples during the laboratory tests, due to new micro-cracks that appear when the load is applied and maintained constant at each loading stage.

Creep strain equations of Grade 92 steel which is used in boilers and piping systems of ultra-supercritical (USC) thermal power plants were developed based on the results of creep tests on smooth round bar specimens of three kinds of Grade 92 steels. In these equations, primary creep behavior was represented by a power-law and tertiary creep behavior was described by an exponential function. Creep parameters were determined as a function of creep rupture times which were calculated from stress and absolute temperature. Additionally, generalized creep failure criteria considering the multiaxial stress were established on the basis of results of creep tests on circumferentially notched round bar specimens. These creep strain equations and creep failure criteria were incorporated into finite element analysis software. Then, creep failure analyses were carried out and the resulting deformation behavior and rupture times were compared with the experimental results. Creep rupture lives were predicted with a good accuracy, within a factor of two in most cases.

Creep testing of Alloy 718 has been carried out at various loads in the temperature range near 650°C in constant load control mode in order to understand how to predict the creep behavior including tertiary creep. The test results have been used for evaluating the existed models, such as Theta projection and Omega method that have been widely used for predicting long term creep strain and rupture time. After determining variables and material parameters of each method with the test results, estimated creep data from each model have been compared with the each measured creep data from the creep tests. The root cause of the discrepancy between estimated and measured data has been analyzed in order to improve the existed methods. The reliability of the improved model has been evaluated in relation to creep data.

The purpose of the paper is the estimation of the polyvinyl chloride – polyester-coated fabric (Precontraint 1202 S2) mechanical properties under uniaxial tensile tests as well as short- and long-time creep tests. The uniaxial tests are the basis of non-linear elastic description while the creep tests are used for the evaluation of the stiffness parameters in time and for the identification of the standard viscoelastic model. The paper also includes a short survey of literature concerning the coated woven fabric description.

An estimation method to predict creep performances of high temperature structural materials has been proposed. A Stress relaxation equation is obtained by fitting stress relaxation testing curves and modifying Tanaka-Ohba reloading stress relaxation constitutive equation. Based on the relationship between stress relaxation and creep, a unified prediction equation of creep is deduced. The method is to use the unified equation to derive creep strain rates or creep strain vs. time curves from stress relaxation measurements through some specified time increments. In order to validate the approach, the predicted results are compared to the experimental results of uni-axial isothermal creep tests conducted on 1Cr10NiMoW2VNbN steel. Good agreement between results of creep tests and the predicted results indicates that the developed method can be recommended in the creep behavior evaluation of high temperature materials.
