Using an idealized planar single crystal model undergoing symmetrical double slip in tension, the effect of rate sensitivity on shear band initiation and on shear band development is analysed. The behavior of the crystal is assumed to be rigid-viscoplastic. By analysing the kinematics and statics of shear banding, the deformation modes involving shear banding pattern are formulated. By a linearized stability analysis, the critical condition for shear band initiation is obtained. To study shear band development, the formulated constitutive equations are numerically solved, and the maximum value of the localized shear is predicted. The results show three different stages of shear band development. The first corresponds to a slow progression of shear localization in the band, the second to a rapid shear localization accompanied with an unloading of surrounding material, and the third to a resumption of deformation in the surrounding material and to a progressive saturation of the shear band. All three stages depend strongly on rate sensitivity, especially the first stage which does not exist in the rigid-plastic case. Even very small rate sensitivity can delay significantly or even preclude the shear band formation. Finally a discussion of the results illustrates how a macroscopic shear band forms and propagates.

The onset of shear-banding in a deforming elastoplastic solid has been linked to change of type of the governing partial differential equations. If uniform material properties are assumed, then (i) deformations prior to shear-banding are uniform, and (ii) the onset of shear-banding occurs simultaneously at all points in the sample. In this paper we study, in the context of a model for anti-plane shearing of a granular material, the effect of a small variation in material properties (e.g. in yield strength) within the sample. Using matched asymptotic expansions, we find that (i) the deformation is extremely non-uniform in a short time period immediately preceding the formation of shear-bands; and (ii) generically, a shear-band forms at a single location in the sample.

Shear band formation often proceeds fracture in amorphous materials. While mesoscale models postulate an underlying defect structure to explain this phenomenon, they do not detail the microscopic properties of these defects especially in strongly confined materials. Here, we use machine learning methods to uncover these microscopic defects in simulated polymer nanopillars.

This article addresses shear flow localization during high rates of deformation of thermal viscoplastic materials. An overview of several efforts towards an improved understanding of shear band formation is given. This paper aims at extracting a unified framework towards the analysis of shear band formation for the considered class of deformations. For this purpose, we present a number of rigorous exact solutions for the one–dimensional simple shearing deformation of a general class of thermal viscoplastic material response. These solutions are used as benchmarks for the validation of both analytical and computational procedures. The interactive roles of inertia, rate–sensitivity, heat conduction, perturbation geometry, boundary conditions, thermal softening, strain hardening and constitutive description as regards the initiation and further intensification of flow localization are thoroughly addressed. We also examine the delicate questions concerning the notion of shear localization and the related mathematical characterization, length and time scales as well as the connection between localization and catastrophic failure.

We demonstrate a novel approach to study shear banding in machining at low speeds using a low melting point alloy. In situ imaging and an image correlation method, particle image velocimetry (PIV), are used to capture shear band nucleation and quantitatively analyze the temporal evolution of the localized plastic flow around a shear band. The observations show that the shear band onset is governed by a critical shear stress criterion, while the displacement field around a freshly nucleated shear band evolves in a manner resembling the classical boundary layer formation in viscous fluids. The relevant shear band parameters, the stress at band formation, and local shear band viscosity are presented.

AbstractTsallis nonextensive statistics is employed to characterize serrated flow, as well as multiple shear band formation in ultrafine grain (UFG) size materials. Two such UFG materials, a bi-modal Al-Mg alloy and a Fe-Cu alloy, were chosen. In the first case, at low strain rates serrated flow emerges as recorded in the stress-strain graphs, whereas at high strain rates, extensive shear banding occurs. In the second case, multiple shear banding is the only mechanism for plastic deformation, but serrations in the stress-strain graph are not recorded. The analysis aims at the estimation of Tsallis entropic index qstat (stat denotes stationary state), as well as the estimation of fractal dimension. The results reveal that the distributions of serrations and shear bands do not follow Gaussian statistics as implied by Boltzmann-Gibbs extensive thermodynamics, but are approximated instead by Tsallis q-Gaussian distributions, as suggested by nonextensive thermodynamics. In addition, fractal analysis of multiple shear band images reveals a (multi)fractal and hierarchical profile of the spatial arrangement of shear bands.

Abstract This paper presents an analytical thermo-mechanical model of shear localization and shear band formation in orthogonal cutting of high-strength metallic alloys. The deformation process of the workpiece material includes three stages: homogeneous deformation, shear localization, and chip segmentation. A boundary layer analysis is used to analytically predict the temperature, stress, and strain rate variations in the primary shear zone associated with the shear localization. The predictions of shear band spacing and width from the proposed model are verified by experimental characterization of the chip morphology. The rolling of shear bands on the tool rake face is discussed from the experimental observations. The cutting tool temperature, which is influenced by the heat generated during the shear band formation, is simulated and compared with the finite element simulations. The proposed analytical model reveals the fundamental mechanism of the complete shear localization process in orthogonal cutting, and predicts the stress and temperature variations with high computational efficiency.

The occurrence of intense shear band is a prelude to failure in many Al-sheet materials. In the present study, a full field optical system measurement technique (digital image correlation) and the finite element method are used to characterize the sequence of deformation in uniaxial tension before and after the intense shear band formation in AA6111-T4. The results indicate good agreement between the measurement and the predictions in terms of shear band width, strain distribution along the gauge length and the failure mode.
