Abstract

The creep mechanisms in ceramics are reviewed briefly and then compared with experimental data. It is shown that there are three major types of creep behaviour: a stress exponent close to 5 due to control by dislocation climb and fully ductile behaviour; a stress exponent close to 3 due to control by climb from Bardeen–Herring sources and less than jive interpenetrating independent slip systems; and a stress exponent close to 1 due to diffusion creep. The role of interface reaction control and the transitions from diffusion to power law creep are also examined.MST/1389
