Creep in Structures VI : IUTAM Symposium Proceedings

This book offers a current state of the art in analysis and modeling of creep phenomena with applications to the structural mechanics. and applicationof new experimental methods, such as digital image correlation, for the analysis of inelastic deformation under multi-axial stress state.

This book offers a current state of the art in analysis and modeling of creep phenomena with applications to the structural mechanics. It presents the some presentations from the IUTAM-Symposium series "Creep in Structures", which held in Magdeburg (Germany) in September 2023, and it discusses many advances and new results in the field. These are for example: interlinks of mechanics with materials science in multi-scale analysis of deformation and damage mechanisms over a wide range of stresses and temperature;  development and analysis of new alloys for (ultra)high-temperature applications; formulation and calibration of advanced constitutive models of inelastic behavior under transient loading and temperature conditions; development of efficient procedures and machine learning techniques for identification of material parameters in advanced constitutive laws; introduction of gradient-enhanced and non-local theories to account for damage and fracture processes; and applicationof new experimental methods, such as digital image correlation, for the analysis of inelastic deformation under multi-axial stress state.
