CREEP IN STRUCTURAL ELEMENTS (SELECTED CHAPTERS),
Abstract
The book presents fundamentals of the theory of creep and its development during the past ten years as a new discipline in the mechanics of solids. Principal attention is paid to high-temperature creep of metals and alloys. The book furnishes essential empirical facts and uses them for writing kinetic equations of creep with respect, to various objects and various operational conditions. Furthermore, application of kinetic equations to calculate creep and stress rupture strength of columns, column systems, plates, shells, pipes, rotating discs, rotors, and other structural elements is studied. Problems of bulging and buckling of columns and shells under creep conditions are examined. A special chapter deals with the theory of viscoelasticity as applied to the investigation of creep in concrete and polymeric materials.
