In this paper, creep crack growth simulations were performed based on finite element (FE) damage simulations for several types of test specimens such as C(T), CS(T), SEN(T), M(T) and SEN(B). The Graham-Walles creep law was adopted to describe all three phases of creep. The Creep parameters were obtained from uni-axial creep test results of SS316H at 550°C. Damage model was also included based on creep ductility exhaustion concept, which is defined as the ratio of creep strain to the multi-axial creep ductility. Creep crack growth rates resulting from FE simulations were compared with the experimental data.

In this paper, four types of creep damage models (Kachanov-Robotnov, Liu-Murakami, Cocks-Ashby and Wen-Tu model) were used to study the creep crack growth (CCG) behavior in compact tension (CT) specimen of Hastelloy C-276/BNi-2 brazed joint. The results show that the creep damage model has a great influence on the CCG behavior of brazed joint. The crack-tip stress states, da/dt-C* curves, crack initiation time and rupture life are different for the different damage models. The Kachanov-Rabotnov model can lead to higher CCG rate and shorter rupture life, while the Cocks and Ashby model can reduce CCG rate and prolong the rupture life. The model order in terms of the CCG rate from high to low is K-R, L-M, W-T, C-A model, which is opposite order of crack initiation time. In the simulation of CCG of brazed joint, a precious damage model should be employed for life prediction.

This paper introduce theoretical creep crack growth prediction model and provides experimental validation of the approach for simulating creep crack growth using finite element analysis method, recently proposed by the authors. The FE creep damage model is based on the creep ductility exhaustion concept, and incremental damage is defined by the ratio of incremental creep strain and multi-axial creep ductility. A simple linear damage summation rule is applied. When accumulated damage becomes unity, element stresses are reduced to zero to simulate progressive crack growth. For validation, simulated results are compared with experimental data for a compact tension specimen of modified 9Cr-1Mo at 600°C under various loading levels. The simulated results agree well with experimental C*-da/dt data. The test data are also compared with theoretical CCG prediction model.
