Therefore, the following is merely an overview. The damage is usually plastic deformations caused by creep. Typical examples include the folding of the rear edges of turbine stator vanes (<a id="creep-deformation-at-overheated-turbine-vanes"></a><a id="creep-resistance-by-coarse-grain-structure"></a>
