Our rationale for the second edition remains the same as for the
first edition, which appeared over twenty years ago. This is to
offer simplified, useful and easily understood methods for dealing
with the creep of components operating under conditions met in
practice. When the first edition was written, we could not claim
that the methods which were introduced were well-tried. They were
somewhat conjectural, although firmly based, but not sufficiently
well devel oped. Since that time, the Reference Stress Methods
(RSM) introduced in the book have received much scrutiny and
development. The best recognition we could have of the original
methods is the fact that they are now firmly embedded in codes of
practice. Hopefully, we have now gone a long way towards achieving
our original objectives. There are major additions to this second
edition which should help to justify our claims. These include
further clarification regarding Reference Stress Methods in Chapter
4. There are also new topics which depend on RSM in varying
degrees: * Creep fracture is covered in Chapter 7, where methods
for assessing creep crack initiation and crack growth are fully
described. This chapter starts with a review of the basic concepts
of fracture mechanics and follows with useful, approximate methods,
compatible with the needs of design for creep and the availability
of standard data. * Creep/fatigue interactions and environmental
effects appear in Chapter 8.
