SUMMARY OF RESULTS ON THEORY OF CREEP AND CREEP RUPTURE OF METALS

The authors developed a systematic experimental and theoretical study on the behaviour of creep and creep rupture of metals under uniaxial and complex stress state, as well as on durability of constructional elements during creep.In experimental studies the authors considered the behaviour of various metals under constant and variable stresses, stress concentration, influence of way of loading on creep rupture; the authors also suggested new measuring methods of structure damage of material.
