Mechanics of Creep Brittle Materials 1 edited by A.C.F. Cocks, A.R.S. Pontern.

Failure of components which operate in the creep range can result either from the growth of a dominant crack or through the accumulation of 'damage' in the material. Conventional and nuclear power generating plant are generally designed on the basis of continuum failure, with assessment ro...
