Effects of the Peierls stress on the transition from power law creep to Harper-Dorn creep

Using extensive data on metals, ceramics and silicates, it is demonstrated that power law dislocation creep transits to Harper-Dorn creep at the Peierls stress of a crystal. This transition at such a stress level is perhaps induced by the dislocation density being dependent upon the applied stress in power law creep but determined by the Peierls stress in Harper-Dorn creep.
