Strain Localization Kinetics in a Metal Strip in Tension

Strength of Materials Aims and scope

Abstract

Simulation results for strain localization in a metal strip are obtained with analytical and numerical methods. The initiation of strain localization is shown to be determined by the initial nonuniformity of material properties and by loading conditions. The more uniform material properties, the higher the strain level at which localized flow starts to develop. Metal heating under adiabatic deformation (as a result of the thermal plastic strain effect) causes a decrease in a strain level at which its localization starts. The pulse current passage, accounting for its thermal effect, exerts a similar influence.
