Which risk increases when rapid thermal cycling occurs in a ceramic turbine blade?

💡 Explanation

Rapid thermal cycling causes micro-cracks that grow by enhanced creep at the grain boundaries due to differing thermal expansion coefficients along the grain lattice, leading to failure, because increased stress concentration accelerates tertiary creep; therefore creep is selected rather than options describing more advantageous attributes.
