Creep tests for Titan were carned out using constant-load at $600^{\circ}C$, $650^{\circ}C$ and $700^{\circ}C$. Material constants necessary to predict creep life were acquired from the experimental creep data. And the applicability of Monkman-Grant(M-G) and modified M-G relationships was discussed. It was discovered the log-log plot of M-G relationships between the rupure time(tr) and he minimum creep rate(${\varepsilon}_m$) was conditional on test temperatures. The slop of m was 2.75 at $600^{\circ}C$ and m was 1.92 at $700^{\circ}C$. However; the log-log plot of modified M-G relationships between $t_r/\varepsilon_r$ and $\varepsilon_m$ was indpendent on stresses and temperatures. That is the slop of m' was almost 3.90 in all the data. Thus, change M-G relationships to creep life prediction could be vtilized more reasonably than that of M-G relationships for type Titan. It was divided that the constant slopes never theless of temperatures of practical stresses in the modified relationship were due to an intergranular break grown by wedge-type cauities.

Creep tests for type 316L(N) stainless steel were carried out using constant-load creep machines at 55$0^{\circ}C$, 575$^{\circ}C$ and $600^{\circ}C$. Material constants necessary to predict creep rupture time were obtained from the experimental creep data. And the applicability of Monkman-Grant(M-G) and modified M-G relationships was discussed. The log-log plot of M-G relationship between the rupture time($t_r$,) and the minimum creep rate ($ $\varepsilon$ _m$) was dependent on test temperatures. The slope of m was 1,05 at 55$0^{\circ}C$ and m was 1.30 at $600^{\circ}C$. On the other hand, the log-log plot of modified M-G relationship between $t_r/$\varepsilon$_r$, and $ $\varepsilon$ _m$ was independent on stresses and temperatures. That is, the slope of m＇ was approximately 1.35 in all the data. Thus, modified M-G relationship for creep life prediction could be utilized more reasonably than that of M-G relationship for type 316L(N) stainless steel. It was analyzed that the constant slopes regardless of temperatures or applied stresses in the modified relationship were due to an intergranular fracture grown by wedge-type cavities.

The relationship between the small-punch creep test and the conventional creep test was investigated experimentally using a method similar to that of the Monkman-Grant relationship. Uniaxial and small-punch creep rupture tests were carried out on 9Cr-2W ferritic steel (Commercial Grade 92 steel: X10CrWMoVNb 9-2) at elevated temperatures. From the relation derived in the same manner as the Monkman-Grant relation, a correlation between the displacement rate in response to the small-punch creep test and the strain rate in the uniaxial creep test was found, and the creep life was calculated using this relation. Furthermore, the failure modes of the small punch creep test specimens were investigated to show that the fracture was caused by creep.

The objective of this paper is to investigate the relationship between the short-term creep rupture time and the creep rupture properties at three different elevated temperatures in STS304 stainless steel. Uniaxial constant stress creep rupture tests were performed on the steel to observe the creep rupture behaviors at the elevated temperatures of 600, 650 and 700, according to the testing matrix. It is very important to predict creep life in practical creep design problems. As one of the series of studies on the statistical modelling of probabilistic creep rupture time and the development of creep life prediction techniques, the relationship between applied stress and creep rupture behaviors, such as creep strain rate and rupture time, were investigated. In addition, the Monkman-Grant relationship was observed between the steady-state creep rate and the creep rupture time. The creep rupture surfaces observed by SEM showed up dimple phenomenon at all conditions.

Technological mode progress demands the use of materials at high temperature and pressure. Constant load creep tests have been carried out over the range of stresses at high temperatures. One of the most critical factors in considering such applications as the most critical one is the creep behavior. In order to investigate the creep behavior in this study, the stress exponents during creep were determined over the temperature range of $275^{\circ}C$ to $325^{\circ}C$ and the stress range of 36MPa to 72MPa. The applicability of modified Monkman-Grant relationship was also discussed.

A new practical modeling of the Norton's power law creep is proposed and implemented to analyze the high temperature behaviors of Alloy 690 SG tube material. In the model, both the stress exponent n and the rate constant B are simply treated as the temperature dependent parameters. Based on the two-step optimization procedure, the temperature function of the rate constant B(T) was determined for the data set of each B value after fixing the stress exponent n value by using the prior optimized function at each temperature. This procedure could significantly reduce the numerical errors when using the power law creep equations. Based on the better description of the steady-state creep rates, the experimental rupture times could also be well predicted by using the Monkman-Grant relationship. Furthermore, the difference in tensile strengths at high temperatures could be very well estimated by assuming the imaginary creep stress related to the given strain rate after correcting the temperature effects on the elastic modulus.

Constant load creep tests have been carried out over a range of stresses at high temperatures. The experimental equations of the steady-state creep rate and creep-rupture life were respectively found to be related to the normalized applied-stress and temperature as ln.epsilon.$_{s}$ =6.10 on.sigma./ $E_{T}$-12.81*10$^{3}$ 1/T+15.98 (h $r^{-1}$) ln $t_{R}$=-6.24ln.sigma./ $E_{T}$+15.08*10$^{3}$1/T-23.66 (hr) and the equation of creep-rupture life had a good agreement with the expression of the Minimum-Commitment Method (MCM). However, the relationship between the steady-state creep rate and the creep-rupture life, noted by Monkman and Grant, lnt/snb R/ = mln.epsilon.$_{S}$+b made a considerable deviation against the present creep-rupture data. It is believed that this problem is to be discussed and investigated continually.lly.lly..

Kachanov-Rabotnov(K-R) creep damage theory was reviewed, and applied to design a creep curve for type 316LN stainless steel. Seven coefficients used in the theory, i.e., A, B, k, m, λ, r, and q were determined, and their physical meanings were analyzed clearly. In order to quantify a damage parameter ($\omega$), cavity amount was measured in the crept specimen taken from interrupted creep test with time variation, and then the amount was reflected into K-R damage equations. Coefficient λ, which is regarded as a creep tolerance feature of a material, increased with creep strain. Mater curve with λ=2.8 was well coincided with an experimental one to the full lifetime. The relationship between damage parameter and life fraction was matched with the theory at exponent ${\gamma}$=24 value. It is concluded that K-R damage equation was reliable as the modelling equation for type 316LN stainless steel. Coefficient data obtained from type 316LN stainless steel can be utilized for life prediction of operating material.
