Special features of cyclic deformation kinetics in metals

The special features of cyclic deformation kinetics in, metals are considered. two stages of the cyclic creep rate variation are revealed: the stage of inhibition of the process due to strengthening of the material and the stage of intensification attributed to a decrease in the hydraulic section. Change in the cyclic creep rate is described by the equation ν Bnk + Cnq resulted from the summation of the rates determined from both stages of the process. This equation can be used to determine the number of transition cycles (between two stages) and the value of minimal cyclic creep rate. The prospects of constructing the cyclic creep mode are considered
