The results shown that, after full heat treatment, a high volume of g￠ phase and some granular carbide dispersedly precipitate in the matrix. Thereinto, as the molten salt temperature decreases from 650℃to520℃, the size of fine g￠ phase in the alloy decrease gradually and the amount of carbides increase in the alloy. And the alloy quenched in molten salt at520℃possesses better creep resistance due to the fact that there are more granular carbides precipitating in the alloy to enhance the grain strength. During creep, the deformation features of the alloy are that the configurations of stacking fault and slipping dislocations are activated in the alloy.展开更多

Firstly, we built a database about the strain rate versus the differential stress through collecting the data from salt creep experiments at a range of temperatures（20–200 ℃） in laboratories. The aim is to collect data about salt deformation in nature, and the flow properties can be extracted from the data in laboratory experiments.Moreover, as an important preparation for salt tectonics modeling, a numerical model based on creep experiments of rock salt was developed in order to verify the specific model using the Abaqus package. Finally, under the condition of low differential stresses, the deformation mechanism would be extrapolated and discussed according to microstructure research. Since the studies of salt deformation in nature are the reliable extrapolation of laboratory data, we simplified the rock salt rheology to dislocation creep corresponding to power law creep（n = 5） with the appropriate material parameters in the salt tectonic modeling.展开更多

However, a creep damage theory model and numerical simulation method have not been proposed for the key materials(UNS N10003 alloy) in the TMSR. In this study, creep damage characterization of UNS N10003 alloy is investigated using the Norton creep law and Kachanov–Rabotnov(K–R) creep damage model. First, the creep experimental data of the UNS N10003 alloy at 650 °C were adopted to fit the material constants of the two models. Then, the creep damage behavior of the UNS N10003 alloy was analyzed and discussed under uniaxial and multi-axial stress states. The results indicated that the K–R creep damage model is more suitable for the UNS N10003 alloy than the Norton model. Finally, the numerical simulation method was developed by a user-defined UMAT subroutine and subsequently verified through a finite element analysis(FEA). The FEA results were in agreement with the theoretical solutions. This study provides an effective method for the inelastic creep damage analysis of the elevated temperature structure in the TMSR.展开更多
