The University of Illinois proposes to understand the multi-scale (micro-, meso-, and macro-scale) development of damage in creep-fatigue of Stainless Steel 709 at high temperatures so fatigue life modeling predictivity will be feasible. The University will perform detailed experimental studies of creep-fatigue response over a range of relevant material length scales, temperatures, times, and to the extent possible, different microstructures.
