M. Blicharski et al., INHOMOGENEITIES OF MICROSTRUCTURE EVOLVED IN METALS UNDER PLASTIC-DEFORMATION, Journal of materials processing technology, 53(1-2), 1995, pp. 75-84
The inhomogeneities of microstructure development during plastic defor
mation of ferritic and austenitic stainless steels and copper single c
rystals have been studied in detail. The results indicate that the she
ar bands formation is the consequence of the activation of a new slip
system (or systems) after relatively long time of deformation in initi
ally operating slip or twin systems when the well-defined banded struc
ture or structure with fine twin lamellae is being formed.
