Mesoscopic Simulation of Grain Boundary Diffusion Creep in Inhomogeneous Microstructures

At high temperatures, stresses well below the materials tensile yield strength can induce permanent deformation over a period of time. This time-dependent progressive deformation of a material at constant stress is called Creep and is observed in both crystalline and non-crystalline solids. The prin...
