Results of a numerical study of creep damage development and its effect on the deformation behavior in the Ni-based superalloy IN 738 LC at 850 °C are reported. A continuum damage mechanics based anisotropic damage model has been coupled with the unified model of Chaboche, and is used for the present study. Numerical computations are performed on a plate containing a circular hole under tension. They show that the applied damage model does not cause damage localization and no significant mesh-dependence of the results are observed.
