Creep Rate Calculator | Material Deformation Under Load Tool

Creep Rate Tool Formula:

Steady-State Creep Rate (epsilon):

\[ epsilon = A \times sigma^{n} \times e^{(\frac{-Q}{(R \times T)})} \]

(where A = material constant, sigma = applied stress, n = stress exponent, Q = activation energy, R = gas constant, T = temperature in Kelvin)

The Creep Rate Calculator can be used by engineers, designers and students to predict the deformation of constant stressed materials over time as a function of temperature. Another important consideration in high temperatures usage is creep; this is especially in turbine blades, pressure vessels, boilers and structural members.

Applied stress, initial strain, material creep constant, temperature and time can be entered by users. The calculator determines creep rate and total strain and time deformation using standard creep formulas such as Norton-Bailey, power-law or exponential creep. Illustrated through step-by-step solutions, it is simple to analyze metals, alloys, and other high-temperature structural materials in case of instantaneous and steady-state creep rate, strain accumulation, and time to failure.

Units supporting SI: N, kN, mm, m, Pa, MPa, GPa, hours, seconds. The tool would be suitable among mechanical engineers, civil engineers, design engineers, and students that need effective prediction of creep rate and safe designing of components that work under permanent load at high temperatures.
