FAILURE
• Definition:
• When materials under severe
service conditions are
required to sustain steady
loads for long periods of time,
they undergo
a time dependent deformation.
• This is known as creep
CREEP
• Load :
• Temperature:
• Composition:
• Grain size
• Heat treatment
• Load : Creep rate increases as
load increases.
• Temperature: Creep rate
increases as T increases.
• Composition: Pure metals are
softer than alloys , the
different phases present stops
the dislocation glide .
Hence creep is more in pure
metals.
• Grain size: “Smaller the grain,
stronger the material.”
