Abstract:
Macrolocalization, which accompanies the process of plastic deformation beginning from the yield point and ending by fracture, is determined by the staged character of material-loading diagrams. The evolution of localization patterns in a plastic flow of body-centered cubic vanadium alloy, hexagonal close-packed magnesium alloy, tetragonal tin, and face-centered cubic submicrocrystalline aluminum is analyzed within this concept.
Keywords:plastic deformation, fracture, macrolocalization, autowaves, stages of loading diagrams.
