A probabilistic creep damage model for studying the dispersion of small punch creep test and uniaxial tensile creep test

Key Points

• The study identifies significant dispersion in creep damage behavior across varying tests, impacting material durability.
• Key evidence shows that variability in creep test outcomes can influence mechanical properties significantly.
• Assessment of small punch creep tests against uniaxial tensile tests highlights differences in damage responses.
• Findings suggest the need for improved standards in testing methods to accurately reflect material performance.
