Torsion of Cylindrical and Prismatic Bars in the Presence of Steady Creep

Abstract
This paper is concerned with the steady creep behavior of cylindrical and prismatic bars in which the deformations are caused by pure torsion. The creep problem is first reduced to one in nonlinear elasticity by means of the elastic analog. The elastic analysis is then carried out by means of the principles of minimum energies. These principles yield upper and lower bounds on the angle of twist. Closed-form solutions also are presented for some cross sections.
