Abstract

A decrease in stiffness due to geometrical change and/or material softening caused by deformation is responsible for the occurrence of instability phenomena in engineering materials within the plastic range; i.e., beyond the yield point. Such phenomena manifest themselves in various ways; e.g., buckling, bulging, necking and shear banding. Once such instabilities are started, they tend to persist and the stiffness of the specific cross-sectional area of the specimen decreases; therefore deformation intensifies locally and eventually leads to final collapse and/or failure.
