Creep Deformation of Ice

Knowledge of the creep properties of ice often is needed in field and theoretical studies of the flow and deformation of glaciers, ice shelves, and ice sheets. Recently many of the icy moons in the solar system have become much better known as a result of the successful deep-space probe missions. An understanding of the physical processes that take place within them requires information about t...

Fluctuations and scaling in creep deformation.

The spatial fluctuations of deformation are studied in the creep in Andrade's power law and the logarithmic phases, using paper samples. Measurements by the digital image correlation technique show that the relative strength of the strain rate fluctuations increases with time, in both creep regimes. In the Andrade creep phase characterized by a power-law decay of the strain rate ϵt∼t(-θ), with ...

Creep Deformation by Dislocation Movement in Waspaloy

Creep tests of the polycrystalline nickel alloy Waspaloy have been conducted at Swansea University, for varying stress conditions at 700 °C. Investigation through use of Transmission Electron Microscopy at Cambridge University has examined the dislocation networks formed under these conditions, with particular attention paid to comparing tests performed above and below the yield stress. This pa...
