Abstract
Under creep conditions of high homologous temperatures and low stresse s, crystalline solids exhibit Newtonian viscous flow so that the stead y-slate strain rates vary linearly with the applied stress and deforma tion occurs by the Nabarro-Herring and/or Harper-Dorn mechanisms. The characteristics of these two processes are examined with reference to apparent discrepancies in the interpretation of experimental data. Thr ee basic requirements are formulated which, if satisfied, will permit an unambiguous identification of the occurrence of Harper-Dorn creep.
