Optimization of Time-Temperature Parameters for Creep and Stress Rupture, with Application to Data from German Cooperative Long-Time Creep Program

Abstract

By the use of orthogonal polynomials developed for discrete sets of data, the least-squares equations for determining the optimized stress-rupture parametric constants are obtained in nearly uncoupled form; thus the use of high-degree polynomials is permitted without the loss of significant figures. Optimum values of the constants can thereby be accurately obtained. The method is applied to the data obtained from the German cooperative long-time creep program by using a general parameter of which the Manson-Haferd and Larson-Miller parameters are special cases. Good correlation was obtained. An analysis is also made of creep data obtained for columbium alloy FS-85 with good results. A complete Fortran IV computer program is included to aid those wishing to use the method.
