TY - JOUR TI - Finite element modelling of creep process - steady state stresses and strains AU - Sedmak Aleksandar S AU - Milović Ljubica P AU - Pavišić Mirko N AU - Konjatić Pejo I JN - Thermal Science PY - 2014 VL - 18 IS - 11 SP - 179 EP - 188 PT - Article AB - Finite element modelling of steady state creep process has been described. Using an analogy of visco-plastic problem with a described procedure, the finite element method has been used to calculate steady state stresses and strains in 2D problems. An example of application of such a procedure have been presented, using real life problem - cylindrical pipe with longitudinal crack at high temperature, under internal pressure, and estimating its residual life, based on the C*integral evaluation.
