I want to determine the stress/displacement of a plastic part under constant load after 100000 hrs. Is right to consider the problem as a stationary problem with nonlinear stress/strain relationship using isochronous curve at 100000 hrs or does the fully time creep integration ( with a power law ) give different results ?
Thank in advance
