Usage Examples English
  • Diffusional flow is a regime typically below dislocation creep and occurs at high temperatures due to the diffusion of point defects in the material.
  • The better the filler bonds with the matrix the better creep resistance will be.
  • Creep or plastic deformation happens when subjected to intra-oral stresses such as chewing or grinding.
  • Due to the varying temperatures and pressures between the lower and upper mantle, a variety of creep processes can occur with dislocation creep dominating in the lower mantle and diffusional creep occasionally dominating in the upper mantle.
  • In an induction type meter, creep is a phenomenon that can adversely affect accuracy, that occurs when the meter disc rotates continuously with potential applied and the load terminals open circuited.

  • With the exception of structural metals, such as steel, all structural materials creep over time.
  • The temperature range in which creep deformation may occur differs in various materials.
  • The high-temperature creep strain of alloys must be limited for them to be used.
  • One drawback to the phrase is that it uses "creep" in a way that is contradictory to other terms such as "scope creep", "feature creep", and "mission creep".
  • Tensile testing of creep generally follows the same testing process as standard testing albeit generally at lower stresses to remain in the creep domain rather than plastic deformation.

  • Although CMCs are able to operate at very high temperatures, creep deformation still occur around 1000 °C, in the range of certain high-temperature applications.
  • Creep mechanisms which involve both dislocation creep and diffusional creep include solute-drag creep, dislocation climb-glide creep, and Harper–Dorn creep.
