Multiscale microstructure-based constitutive modeling of high-temperature creep rupture in post-irradiated ODS steels by Xiaobao Fu, Zhenyu Zhao, Zeyuan Yan, Yuntao Zhong, Dengke Chen, Ruiqian Zhang, Bin Liu, Qihong Fang, Jia Li

“…Considering the irradiation-induced microstructure, a modified thermal creep rate model is proposed, and the thermal creep rate and creep strain of irradiated ODS steel are predicted at different temperatures. The results show that the thermal creep rate reaches 3 × 10−5 s−1 at the temperature of 500 °C and stress of 200 MPa, while the thermal creep strain does not exceed 3 % at the temperature of 800 °C. …”
