Abstract
At first creep means creep in the classical sense (Fig. 7.1), i.e. the time-dependent increase of strain under constant stress whereas the other limiting case is called (Fig. 7.2) and means the time-dependent decrease of stress under constant strain. Now the expression creep is extended to all processes in between, the occurrence of time-dependent strain becoming permanent after load release.
