Cylindrical Punch

The impression creep behavior of lead was investigated using a 100 μm diameter punch at ambient and elevated temperatures (433 K-563 K) under punching stresses of 6–70 MPa. The results were compared with the data obtained from conventional creep tests reported in the literature. Unlike the indentation creep test, the impression creep test showed a steady-state velocity after a short transient period when the flat-end cylindrical punch was pushed against the lead surface by a constant load. Both the temperature and stress dependences were comparable to those of the constant stress tensile creep tests under similar conditions. A master curve for lead was established by collecting data from the impression creep tests and the constant stress tensile creep tests. The indentation creep measurements for lead were included also. However, the indentation data depend on the load applied.

ABSTRACTIn this study Ti-46Al-9Nb (at%) sheet material processed by a powder metallurgical route was examined. Subsequent to hot rolling the sheets were subjected to a stress-relief treatment at 1273K for 3 hours. During this heat treatment a fine-grained near gamma microstructure has been formed. 100 hours tensile creep tests under constant load were carried out at 700°C in rolling direction, transverse direction as well as 45° direction. Using the method of load changes a stress exponent of 4.1 was determined. Furthermore, the apparent activation energy was determined in the temperature range of 715 – 775°C. Both stress exponent and activation energy suggest that diffusion assisted dislocation climb is the dominant creep mode. A comparison of these results with those of so-called conventional or so-called “2nd generation” γ-TiAl based alloys, e.g. Ti-46.5Al-4(Cr,Nb,Ta,B) (at%) and Ti-47Al-4(Cr,Mn,Nb,Si,B) (at%), indicates a significantly better creep resistance and a higher activation energy of the high Nb containing alloy. Additionally, internal friction experiments were conducted in order to analyze the deformation behavior under very small strains at elevated temperatures.

Constant load creep experiments were conducted using a depth-sensing indentation instrument with indentation depths in the submicron range. Experiments were conducted on polycrystalline Sn and sputtered Al films on Si substrates. The results show that the plastic depth versus time curves and the strain rate versus stress plots from these experiments are analogous to those obtained from conventional creep experiments using bulk specimens. The value of the stress exponent for Sn is close to the reported values from uniaxial creep tests. Tests on Al films showed that the stress exponent is dependent on the indentation depth and is governed by the proximity to the film/substrate interface. Load change experiments were also performed and the data from these tests were analyzed. It is concluded that indentation creep experiments may be useful in elucidating the deformation properties of materials and in identifying deformation mechanisms.

Previous deformation experiments on halite have collectively explored different creep mechanisms, including dislocation creep and pressure solution. Here, we use an alternative to conventional uniaxial or triaxial deformation experiments—nanoindentation tests—to measure the hardness and creep behavior of single crystals of halite at room temperature. The hardness tests reveal two key phenomena: (1) strain rate-dependent hardness characterized by a value of the stress exponent of ~25, and (2) an indentation size effect, whereby hardness decreases with increasing size of the indents. Indentation creep tests were performed for hold times ranging from 3600 to 106 s, with a constant load of 100 mN. For hold times longer than 3 × 104 s, a transition from plasticity to power-law creep is observed as the stress decreases during the hold, with the latter characterized by a value of the stress exponent of 4.87 ± 0.91. An existing theoretical analysis allows us to directly compare our indentation creep data with dislocation creep flow laws for halite derived from triaxial experiments on polycrystalline samples. Using this analysis, we show an excellent agreement between our data and the flow laws, with the strain rate at a given stress varying by less than 5% for a commonly used flow law. Our results underscore the utility of using nanoindentation as an alternative to more conventional methods to measure the creep behavior of geological materials.

The Difference

Creep is defined as a time dependent component of plastic deformation. Creep tests can be performed either at constant load or at constant applied stress. Engineering creep tests carried out at constant load are aimed at determination of the creep strength or creep fracture strength, i.e. the data needed for design. The constant stress tests are important as a data source for fundamental investigations of creep deformation and fracture mechanisms and for finite element modelling of more complex stress situations. For some materials, the difference between the two type of testing can be very small, while for other materials is large, depending on the creep plasticity of the material under testing. The paper aims to compare the creep results of two different creep-resistant materials: the advanced 9%Cr martensitic steel (ASME Grade P91) and a Zr1%Nb alloy obtained by both testing methods and to clarify the decisive factors causing observed differences in their creep behaviour.

Temperature Ranges

Niobium-base in-situ composite Nb-18Si-5Mo-5Hf-2C (in mol%) was prepared and heat-treated at 2070 K for 20 hour. The uni-axile tensile tests at high temperature ranges and the constant load tensile creep tests at 1570 K were performed. The specimen tensile-tested at 1470 K exhibited the excellent UTS of 450 MPa, and the brittle to ductile transition temperature is between 1470 and 1670 K. The specimens creep tested showed good creep strength; the stress exponent is about 5. The tensile fracture surface of the in-situ composite is complex and attributed to cleavage of the Nb 5 Si 3, Nb ss / Nb 5 Si 3 interface separation, ductile rupture of the Nb ss and correlations of these. On the otherhand, the fracture surface of creep tested consists of intergranular above 150 MPa and transgranular below 120 MPa with severely deformed Nb ss .

Power Law Creep

ABSTRACT:Detailed finite-element computations and carefully designed indentation creep experiments were carried out in order to establish a robust and systematic method to accurately extract creep properties during indentation creep tests. Finite-element simulations confirmed that, for a power law creep material, the indentation creep strain field is indeed self-similar in a constant-load indentation creep test, except during short transient periods at the initial loading stage and when there is a deformation mechanism change. Self-similar indentation creep leads to a constitutive equation from which the power-law creep exponent, n, the activation energy for creep, Qc and so on can be evaluated robustly. Samples made from an Al-5.3mol%Mg solid solution alloy were tested at temperatures ranging from 573 K to 773 K. The results are in good agreement with those obtained from conventional uniaxial creep tests in the dislocation creep regime.

Creep Exposure

ABSTRACTThe effect of long-term aging and creep exposure on the microstructure of a cast TiAl-based alloy with nominal chemical composition Ti-46Al-2W-0.5Si (at.%) was studied. The aging experiments were performed at temperatures between 973 and 1073 K for various times ranging from 10 to 14000 h in air. Constant load tensile creep tests were performed at applied stresses ranging from 150 to 400 MPa and at temperatures between 973 and 1123 K up to 25677 h. During aging and creep testing the α2(Ti3Al)-phase in the lamellar and feathery regions transforms to the γ(TiAl)-phase and fine needle-like B2 precipitates. Microstructural instabilities lead to a softening of the alloy. The effect of this softening on long-term creep resistance is negligible at temperatures of 973 and 1023 K.

AbstractConstant loading rate/load indentation tests (1/P dP/dt) and constant rate of loading followed by constant load (CRL/Hold) indentation creep tests have been conducted on high purity electropolished indium. It is shown that for a material with a constant hardness as a function of depth, a constant (1/P dP/dt) load-time history results in a constant indentation strain rate (1/h dh/dt). The results of the two types of tests are discussed and compared to data in the literature for constant stress tensile tests. The results from the constant (1/P dP/dt) experiments appear to give the best correlation to steady-state uniaxial data.
