D. Muller et al., NONLOCAL BEHAVIOR OF ELASTOPLASTIC METALS - THEORY AND RESULTS, Journal of engineering materials and technology, 116(3), 1994, pp. 378-383
In this paper, a nonlocal theory based upon crystalline plasticity is
used in Case Of a dislocation cell structure induced during plastic st
raining and represented by a two-phase material. By describing convect
ive dislocation motion (which appears to be a basic feature of hardeni
ng) and storage mechanisms, under some simplifying assumptions, numeri
cal simulations exhibit significant effects on the intragranular heter
ogeneization, as well as on global results like the Bauschinger effect
.
