Creep life analysis by an energy model of small punch creep test

open access: yesMaterials and Design, 2016
Abstract Currently most creep life prediction methods by small punch test are focused on the steady creep deformation phase which is similar to conventional uniaxial creep tests. This paper presents a novel creep life extrapolation approach by small punch creep test. An energy model believed to have advantages in modeling creep deformation process of

Creep strength and minimum strain rate estimation from Small Punch Creep tests

open access: yesMaterials Science & Engineering A: Structural Materials: Properties, Microstructure and Processing, 2018
A new standard is currently being developed under the auspices of ECISS/TC 101 WG1 for the small punch testing technique for the estimation of both tensile and creep properties. Annex G of the new standard is covering the assessment and evaluation of small punch creep (SPC) data. The main challenge for estimating uniaxial creep properties from SPC data

The effect of testing environment on small punch creep

open access: yesUbiquity Proceedings, 2018
Small punch creep testing (SPCT) is currently experiencing a resurgence of interest as a small-scale testing technique (SSTT) for a wide range of uses, including testing in-service components and materials with limited availability. SPCT is particularly pertinent for the fusion community since it is difficult to irradiate large volumes of material due ...

On the interpretation of results from small punch creep tests [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Strain Analysis for Engineering Design, 2010
The small punch creep testing method is highly complex and involves interactions between a number of non-linear processes. The deformed shapes that are produced from such tests are related to the punch and specimen dimensions and to the elastic, plastic, and creep behaviour of the test material, under contact and large deformation conditions, at ...

Considerations for the accreditation of small punch creep testing

open access: yesUbiquity Proceedings, 2018
Efforts to extend a pre-existing European Code of Practice (CoP) covering small punch creep and tensile testing into a full International standard procedure are progressing. Swansea Materials Research & Testing Ltd, in collaboration with the academic team based at Swansea University, have been proactive in anticipating some of the key ...

Elevated temperature creep deformation of a single crystal superalloy through the small punch creep method [PDF]

open access: yesMaterials Science and Engineering: A, 2015
Abstract Small punch testing is now a widely recognised approach for obtaining useful mechanical property information of critical structural components, particularly in the nuclear industry. However, to date the utilisation of this method has been limited to isotropic materials such as aluminium alloys and steels.

Investigation of small punch creep testing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Assessing the damage level of in-service components and obtaining material properties for welded structures exposed to creep is essential for the safe operating of power generation industry. Standard creep testing techniques require relatively large volumes of material for the machining of testing samples.

Effect of ausforming temperature on creep strength of G91 investigated by means of Small Punch Creep Tests

open access: yesMaterials Science and Engineering: A, 2018
Abstract The stability of the martensitic microstructure in ferritic/martensitic G91 steel at operating temperatures up to 700 °C might be improved by means of ausforming thermomechanical treatments. The goal sought is to promote the formation of a high number density of MX nanoprecipitates in the martensitic microstructure obtained after a ...
