Inhomogeneities in plastic deformation through dislocation glide

Conference ·
OSTI ID:7346618
Recent research involving the direct computer simulation of plastic deformation through planar dislocation glide suggests that plastic inhomogeneities such as the formation and growth of discrete slip bands are an inherent feature of deformation through glide. The sources of glide inhomogeneity are described and the influence of temperature, microstructural barriers, and applied stress on the heterogeneity of deformation in idealized crystals is discussed.
