Effective determination of cyclic-visco-plasticity material properties using an optimisation procedure and experimental data exhibiting scatter. Materials at High Temperatures, 30(2), 117-128. https://doi.org/10.3184/096034013x13720928952114

It may be inevitable in the design and analysis of most high temperature components (such as power industry pipe work) that variations in load and/or temperature will occur in normal operation. This presents complications in the prediction of the res...
