Sentence examples for creep can be from inspiring English sources

During asperity slip, both tectonic loading and steady-state creep can be neglected, because they give negligible contributions in such a short time.

A single-room remodel can inspire the same makeover madness, something the pros call "scope creep". "Scope creep can be costs involved in discovering larger issues (like major plumbing repairs, mold, or hot-water-tank issues) as well as the idea of '... while we're at it, let's also remodel this,'" says Reagan.

This gentle creep can be seen on the UC Berkeley campus just to the northwest of Thursday's epicenter.

In this way, the thickness of the individual coating layers to avoid creep can be optimised, thereby improving the overall coating performance under load.

Acceleration of creep can be realized by applying high stresses, and a momentary master curve of creep compliance can be constructed using the time-stress superposition principle.

Since the tests were performed 32 weeks after moulding of the specimens, the effect of ageing during creep can be neglected.

Today, where the effects of technology and other factors contributing to effort-creep can be reasonably quantified, managers of input-control fisheries such as the NPF, must seek to identify and implement a system of management which is a better analogue for fishing effort - enforceable, flexible and adjustable when restructuring is required.

Typically, fatigue fracture, intergranular creep fracture or creep rupture can be identified when failure was dictated by LCF or creep.

The results indicate that reasonable predictions of binder low temperature creep properties can be obtained from the corresponding mixture low temperature creep properties.

The ferritic Fe-Ni-Al-Cr-Mo steel (FBB8) has good creep properties up to 700 °C due to B2-NiAl nanoscale precipitates and its creep resistance can be further improved by additions of 2 or 4 wt.% Ti, as a result of sub-precipitates within the main precipitates.

Since the restrained tensile strain, ε t, is defined as the sum of the elastic strain, ε e, and the tensile creep strain, ε c, according to previous studies (Kanda 2005; Shima and Ichikawa 2009), the tensile creep strain can be obtained from Eq. (2).
