Creep & Fracture in High Temperature Components - Design & Life Assessment
Issues is a critically important compendium of European and worldwide research
investigating creep, fatigue and failure behaviors in metals under high-temperature
and other service stresses. Comprising over 110 fully refereed and not previously
published papers, this volume is intended to help set the standards for coordinating
creep data and for maintaining defect-free quality in high-temperature metals
and metal-based weldments. Areas of application include power generation, furnaces,
pipes and tubes, and turbine components. Presentations cover microstructural
testing, as well in-plant component performance, of a variety of steels and
alloys. New information is presented for alloys that do not undergo Type IV
cracking. In addition, data is offered for life assessment and long-term protection
of metal-based assets with special attention paid to emerging applications of
metals in nuclear power reactors and plants.
