An integral formulation of C(t) for use in creep crack growth evaluation
Abstract
C(t) has been found to be an effective parameter to characterize steady-state and transient creep crack growth rates. An integral formulation for computing C(t) numerically is proposed in this paper, which complements existing C(t) formulation used in laboratory measurements.
