Abstract
Tension and torsion creep recovery tests on commercially pure copper at 150, 200 and 250°C are reported. Recoverable strain can range from a negligible percentage to approaching 100 per cent of the total creep strain developed, depending on stress, creep period preceding unloading, and current recovery time. An empirical equation relating creep recovery to these characteristics of the initial creep test is given.Keywords
