Abstract:
The feasibility of the elastoplastic invariant and the evolution of dispersion laws for successive stages of strain hardening (linear, parabolic strain hardening and the pre-fracture stage) are considered. A uniform description of the plastic flow process at different stages of the deformation process is proposed. Basic model concepts are formulated that connect microscopic mechanisms of dislocation deformation with the properties of an active deformable medium capable of generating corresponding autowave modes of localized plastic flow.
Keywords:deformation, plasticity, autowaves, dispersion, active medium.
