The Creep Model with Temperature and Stress Factors

6 The Creep Model with Temperature and Stress Factors 

Once the time function, the temperature correction factor and the stress correction factor are obtained the creep model can be expressed as  

In this equation A, B, c, d and e are new correlation coefficients. This general equation can be used to represent the overall creep response. The values of the constants in this equation depend on the experimental data and test conditions used to develop the model. It is not necessary to obtain all the different possible equations because in practice if 1 model equation is obtained, the other results can be predicted. To predict the response at different temperatures and stress levels, it is recommended to develop a model generated with data obtained at a reference temperature and stress level. In this study a model obtained from the experimental data at a reference temperature
