ABSTRACT An apparatus is disclosed for monitoring a material undergoing a thermally activated process defined by the function t?e K/T wherein t is time in seconds, e is the base of natural logarithms, K is a constant including the activation energy of the process measured in calories per mole. The apparatus comprises; support means, creep means supported by the support means and having a rate of change in physical dimension which follows the equation Image when subjected to a constant force wherein Image equals the rate of change in physical dimension, c is a constant determined by the physical dimensions of said creep means and the magnitude of the constant force, e is the base of natural logarithms, U is the activation energy required for said creep means to change in physical dimension, R is the "gas constant", T is temperature, and wherein U/R is substantially equal to K.
