Creep behavior of the conventional Ti-6Al-4V alloy with a Widmanstatten microstructure has been investigated in air under constant load tensile tests. The stress exponent values of 11.3 and 5.2 were obtained at 500 and 600 deg C, respectively. By incorporating the threshold stress into analysis, the...
