Abstract
Creep properties of Al-10wt%Zn alloy were studied using specimens of d ifferent grain diameters in the high stress range 163-193 MPa. The tra nsient parameter n was found to increase with increasing grain diamete r, A decrease in the steady state creep rate was obtained by increasin g grain diameter according to a Petch style relation. In this high str ess region, the stress exponent, m increases with grain diameter. This was explained as due to the transition in climb velocity of dislocati ons from a linear to an exponential function of stress.
