Fundamentals of Creep in Metals and Alloys* Numerous line drawings with consistent format and units allow easy comparison of the behavior of a very wide range of materials * Transmission electron micrographs provide a direct insight in the basic microstructure of metals deforming at high temperatures * Extensive literature review of over 1000 references provide an excellent reference document, and a very balanced discussion Understanding the strength of materials at a range of temperatures is critically important to a huge number of researchers and practitioners from a wide range of fields and industry sectors including metallurgists, industrial designers, aerospace R&D personnel, and structural engineers. The most up-to date and comprehensive book in the field, Fundamentals of Creep in Metals and Alloys discusses the fundamentals of time-dependent plasticity or creep plasticity in metals, alloys and metallic compounds. This is the first book of its kind that provides broad coverage of a range of materials not just a sub-group such as metallic compounds, superalloys or crystals. As such it presents the most balanced view of creep for all materials scientists. The theory of all of these phenomena are extensively reviewed and analysed in view of an extensive bibliography that includes the most recent publications in the field. All sections of the book have undergone extensive peer review and therefore the reader can be sure they have access to the most up-to-date research, fully interrogated, from the world’s leading investigators. |

... coworkers compensated the stress using the Young's modulus, E, while most others use the shear modulus, G. The choice of E versus G is probably not critical in terms of improving the ability of the phenomenological equation to describe ...
... coworkers [22] for Al alloys and 304 and 316 stainless steels by others [66,98,103,110,111] are plotted in Figures 21 and 22. Blum and coworkers appear to have been reluctant to measure r in pure aluminum due to possible recovery ...
... coworkers [27,115–119], and Blum and coworkers [22,77, 92,121–125] all of whom have long studied this area as well as several others [66,104,114,126–131]. The following discussion on the stress dip test relies on this overview. With ...
... coworkers [26,115–117], Argon and coworkers [18,137], Morris and Martin [43,44], and many others [20,53,138] (to reference a few) have suggested that the backflow or backstress is a result of high local Internal stresses that are ...
... coworkers reasoned that relating the flow stress to the (e.g., steadystate) substructure at a fixed strain-rate and temperature may be performed with knowledge of N (or m) in equation (1) N 1⁄4 T,s Sherby and coworkers suggested that ...
