The creep rupture test is a destructive test method for determining the material behaviour (creep) at constant test temperature (room temperature and below) and after prolonged exposure to a constant load. Components that are subjected to long-term constant loads deform plastically. This material behaviour is called creep.
Features:
Experiments at or below room temperature are possible
Typical phenomena of creep processes
Learning Objectives And Experiments:
Influence of temperature and load on the creep
Creep in specimens of various materials
Record a straintime diagram (creep curve)
Load and recovery in plastics.
