Periodic Reporting for period 1 - RESTREIG (Development of A Method for Analysis of Creep Behaviour of Welded Rotating Components of High Temperature Applications Based on Eigenstrain Theory)

Creep is a time dependent deformation that occurs in metals and alloys after prolonged exposure to stress, which is below or above yield strength, at elevated temperatures. Failures related to creep appears with the tertiary stage of this three-stage process, but they initiate...
