Stress rupture resistancePrinciples underlying the design of metallic systems for stress rupture resistance are outlined by considering the specific case studies of cobalt- and nickel-base superalloys. Ways in which superalloys can be designed for high stress rupture resistance are discussed. In describing the alloying procedures, the strengthening mechanisms involved and methods of avoiding phases detrimental to stress rupture resistance are identified. New processing techniques such as controlled solidification, prealloyed powder processing, and autoclave heat treatments are described as further means of achieving increased stress rupture resistance in superalloy and other systems.
