Description
High Temperature Miniature Specimen Test Methods, for the first time in book format, focuses on a comprehensive and thorough introduction to a range of high temperature, miniaturized test methods at elevated temperatures which are used to obtain "bulk creep or fatigue properties from a small volume of material. Complicated mathematics and modelling are not involved. It is intended to be of use to a wide range of audience of engineers (e.g. designers, manufacturers, metallurgists, stress analysts), researchers (e.g. materials scientists) and students (undergraduate and postgraduate) in the field of high-temperature material and structural integrity assessment. Specific novel features of the book include 1] theoretical basis of each test method; 2], data interpretation method of each test method; and 3] specific application of each test method.
- Provides the theoretical basis of each test method
- Includes the data interpretation method of each test method
- Presents specific applications and the limitations of each test method, along with opportunities for future developments

Content
1. Outlines test types and data processing used to estimate the material constants2. The most popular small punch test method, i.e. the small punch test3. Introduces the impression creep test method using a rectangular indenter4. Theoretical methods for data interpretation and typical test data are described5. These include the miniature ring creep test methods6. The miniature bar-type creep test method7. Miniature bending creep tests8. The more recently developed miniature thin-plate test creep and low cycle fatigue test methods 9. A specific topic related to the data interpretation is addressed in this chapter, in which the concept of the Equivalent Gauge Length (EGL) is introduced10. The determination of material properties from the miniature specimen11. Focuses on a specific application field on structural assessment of aero-engine gas turbine blades, where the assessment of anisotropy and lifing of service-aged gas turbine blades made of single-crystal nickel-based superalloy is particularly discussed12. Briefly addresses several requirements for the future development of the miniaturized specimen test method, which is related to material property characterization, component assessment, size effect and multi-scale modelling, as well as standardization
