Abstract
The accurate prediction of elevated-temperature creep behaviour of alloys is important for preventing catastrophic failure of systems operating under prolonged elevated temperature-stress conditions. Here, we couple the Kachanov-Rabotnov (K-R) creep model with a multi-objective genetic algorithm (MOGA) to predict the creep behaviour of Alloy 617 at 800°C, 900°C, and 1000°C, under various stress conditions. It is shown that the MOGA-optimised K-R creep model can capture the overall elevated-temperature behaviour of the alloy at 800°C under a wide range of stress conditions. However, at 900°C and 1000°C, oxidation leads to the atypical accumulation of creep plasticity, which the K-R model cannot account for. Nevertheless, it is shown that the proposed methodology of optimising the K-R model with a MOGA can consistently provide accurate results within the limits of the K-R model.
