Creep Equation Calculator

Calculate creep strain by using simple creep equation physics calculator online.

In materials science, creep (sometimes called cold flow) is the tendency of a solid material to move slowly or deform permanently under the influence of mechanical stresses. It can occur as a result of long-term exposure to high levels of stress that are still below the yield strength of the material. Creep is more severe in materials that are subjected to heat for long periods, and generally increases as they near their melting point.

Calculation of Creep Strain Equation

Formula:

dt = C · σ m d b · e - Q k · T

where,

dt is the time

ε is the creep strain

C is a constant dependent on the material and the particular creep mechanism

m and b are exponents dependent on the creep mechanism

Q is the activation energy of the creep mechanism

σ is the applied stress

d is the grain size of the material

k is Boltzmann's constant [ 1.3806488e-23 J/K ]

T is the absolute temperature
