Creep lifetime estimation• Creep lifetime estimation is typically performed
with stress-LMP curves.
• Lifetime varies significantly depending on:1. sample dimensions (sheet vs plate)2. microstructure (grain size and
precipitates)
• Lifetime prediction is inaccurate for1. Non-standard materials processing2. Rafting microstructures3. Heat-affected zones (HAZ)
• Conservative design has significant impact on costs.

Physics-based creep modeling• Assuming Class II solid solution alloy behavior:
1. Nabarro-Herring creep (self diffusion of vacancies)2. Dislocation creep (glide + diffusion-assisted climb)3. Q = Ni self-diffusion coefficient

• Steady-state creep data is collected from the literature as a function of stress, temperature, and grain size.
• We want to explain this data based on simple physics-based models.
Physics-based creep modeling• 𝛾𝛾′ precipitates cause a “threshold” stress:

• The threshold stress is determined from micromechanical simulations, assuming that its major contribution is due to the dislocation-precipitates bypass stress.
• 𝜎𝜎𝑡𝑡𝑡 was estimated to be approximately 70MPa for Haynes 282.
• Haynes 282 has high Mo content. Mo causes large lattice misfit.• Assuming Class I solid solution alloy behavior:
1. Nabarro-Herring creep (self diffusion of vacancies)2. Dislocation creep (viscous glide + diffusion-assisted
climb)3. Q = Mo self-diffusion coefficient
• Creep rate:𝑘𝑘𝑘𝑘𝐷𝐷𝐿𝐿𝐺𝐺𝐺𝐺

• Discrete Dislocation Dynamics (DDD) simulations were used to estimate the threshold stress for dislocations-precipitates bypass as a function of
1. Precipitates size2. Precipitates volume fraction3. 𝛾𝛾/𝛾𝛾’ lattice misfit

• Misfit stresses pin dislocations and increase the threshold stress.
Possible misfit effects:• Misfit ~0 reduces the 𝛾𝛾/𝛾𝛾’
surface energy and reduces precipitates coarsening kinetics
• Affects self-diffusion• Alters stress in matrix and
precipitates • Affects dislocations-
precipitates interaction
Linear elastic analysis coupled with strength-based limits give conservative MTBF because it is based on minimum properties and non-specific datasets.Non-linear elasto-viscoplastic analysis coupled with strain damage fraction rules is less
conservative and more relevant to operational transients. Conservatism must still be built in if exact microstructure information is not included.A microstructure-based creep model has been implemented to predict transient and
cyclic creep.Main creep mechanisms: viscous glide, climb, and diffusion. Slowest rate is due to
molybdenum. Some uncertainties exist regarding the effects of grain size and sample thickness. The model will be refined to address those with additional experiemnts.γ’ misfit stresses and dislocation-precipitate interaction have been implemented in our
Dislocation Dynamics Code (MODELIB) to predict fatigue and creep.
