Hi Vladimir,
A single crack signifies a non-uniform loading condition/stress concentration geometry. Even than, "accumulation of creep-fatigue damage" is still the life-time controlling process.

Hi Werner,
That is a completely different story J and "Yes" it is one possible
scenario where the life time prediction can be made based on
"accumulation of creep-fatigue damage". In other words, to predict the
life time one would have to know the rate of accumulation of total
damage (voids, as I wouldn't call them cracks in that particular case)
distributed throughout the joints.
However, in many-many case a single crack starts growing in a joint,
finally causing its failure. That is the scenario I was referring to in
my original e-mail and "accumulation of creep-fatigue damage" my not be
the life-time controlling process.
Regards,
Vladimir

Sorry,
that's what comes from doing things waiting for an airplane- should have
been "...micro-voiding at grain boundary intersections,..."

Hi Werner,
I got used to calling it grain boundary triple junction (it's just
probably different terminologies). However, since I know what you meant
I'm confused with the whole sentence: "In any case, grain coarsening
comes first, micro-voiding and grain
boundary intersections next...", triple joints are there to begin with.
Regards,
Vladimir

Hi Vladimir,
"Grain boundary intersections" occur where 3 or more grain boundaries
come together.
Purely metallurgically speaking, things get more messy on a scale
smaller than grain size, but
in terms of SJ rel consideration on the grain-size level is sufficient.
