<p>[QUOTE=&quot;physics-fan3.14, post: 2355203, member: 19165&quot;]Creep is certainly analagous to the &quot;flow&quot; of glass. However, creep is defined as deformation under a low load for an extended period of time. A coining chamber has neither low load, nor a long time. </p><p><br /></p><p>The correct term, in materials sciences, is cold flow. It is related to the ductility of a material. After the applied stress exceeds the yield stress, there is permanent deformation of the material, and it conforms to the die.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
