TL;DR: In this paper, a series of constant strain range tests was made for a wide variety of materials producing fatigue lives varying from a few cycles to about one million cycles, and the specimens were subjected to axial, compression-tension, low-frequency fatigue about a zero mean strain.

TL;DR: Optimization of time-temperature parameters for creep and stress rupture, with application to data from German cooperative long-time creep program, is discussed in this article, where the authors apply this approach to data collected from the German Cooperative Creep Program.

TL;DR: In this article, a method using finite-difference recurrence relations is presented for direct extrapolation of families of curves, which is illustrated by applications to creep-rupture data for several materials and is shown that good results can be obtained without the necessity for any of the usual parameter concepts.
