Which outcome results when a crystalline turbine blade experiences accelerated creep?

A)Grain boundary sliding accelerates
B)Stacking fault energies decrease
C)Dislocation climb processes diminish
D)Intrinsic stress resistance is amplified

💡 Explanation

Accelerated creep causes grain boundary sliding because atomic diffusion is enhanced along the boundaries. This mechanism weakens the lattice structure causing deformation; therefore, sliding occurs more rapidly rather than dislocation climb being important for primary creep at lower stresses.
