A self-consistent creep damage constitutive model and a finite element model hove been developed for nickel-base directionally solidified superalloys. Grain degradation and grain boundary voiding are considered. The model parameters are determined from the creep test bata of a single crystal and a directionally solidified superalloy with a special crystallographic orientation. The numerical analysis shows that the modeled creep damage behaviors of nickel-base directionally solidified superalloys with different crystallographic orientations are in good agreement with the experimental beta.
