Abstract

By coupling the SRM rule (Strain Rate Modified accumulation of creep damage) to predict the lifetime in the range of fatigue-creep interaction with a reliable constitutive model, its extrapolation ability can be fully recognized and the number of necessary experiments considerably further reduced. The SRM rule has been coupled with uniaxial Chaboche's vis- coplastic constitutive model. The efficiency and reliability of the couple are presented on the example of IN 738 LC super alloy at 850° C. 1 Introduction A number of comprehensive research projects were recently conducted worldwide to establish a recomm
