Hi, 

I'm looking to try and find some more information/references on the applicatons of the different creep laws in ansys; where can i find this ?

Also i'm led to believe that ansys has 316 cold worked data/laws already embeded in the software ? how can this be accessed. 

 

Thank you,

Open ANSYS Help from Workbench, Mechanical, or the Windows Start menu.  Navigate to the Mechanical APDL section. Look in the Material Reference. In the Nonlinear section is Rate-Dependent Plasticity and a section on Creep.  There is also a Theory Manual with more information.

35.1. Introduction (ansys.com)

4.3. Rate-Dependent Plasticity (Including Creep and Viscoplasticity) (ansys.com)

6.4. Creep Material Curve-Fitting (ansys.com)
