Creep of Metals in Shear at High Temperatures

Abstract
The properties of materials at high temperatures are receiving considerable study in the design of much industrial equipment. The present paper describes some fundamental considerations in this field by discussing the creep of metals in shear. Some theoretical and practical reasons for investigating creep in shear are given, test apparatus for this purpose is outlined, and some experimental information is included. Much more work in this type of study is desired and the paper may help to stimulate further research in this direction.
