Abstract

The article discusses several approaches [1–3] to a description of creep under complex loading, making it possible to take account of the anisotropic character of the hardening of a material with not fully developed creep. An attempt is made to take account of the different behavior of a material with increasing and decreasing stresses. The results of predictions made using various theories are compared with experimental data from investigations of the creep of AK4-1 alloy under the combined action of elongation and torsion, under conditions of nonproportional stepwise loading. Comparison with experiment shows that, under complex loading, a theory based on the hypothesis of isotropic hardening does not describe the experimental data satisfactorily. Considerably better results are given by theories which take account of the anisotropic character of the hardening of materials with not fully established creep.
