Special Issue Description

To evaluate the development and spread of creep cracks, the strip yield model developed by Dugdale, Bilby, Cottrell, and Swinden is used. This expands earlier research on growth by Heaton and Chan and Vitek (on incubation). The basic criterion for crack growth utilized is a COD-based one, following both Vitek and Heaton, and Chan. The crack is supposed to widen at a constant crack opening displacement (COD) of c and the creep strain t at the crack tip is assumed to be h, where the gauge length is a property of the material. According to the COD-based hypothesis, the net stress is in charge of controlling the incubation and failure times at very low stresses, but the stress intensity factors at big stresses. The hypothesis has the drawback of ignoring primary creep effects, which must be absorbed by adjusting the secondary creep index.

Manuscript Submission information

Manuscripts should be submitted online via the manuscript Engine. Once you register on APID, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline.
All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the email address:[email protected] for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a Double-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for the submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page.
