Modelling Deformation Structures in Metals Based on an Entropic Analysis

Article Preview

Abstract:

Non-equilibrium thermodynamics theory is applied to the description of plastic deformation in pure FCC metals at the steady state. The saturation flow stress is predicted as a function of temperature and strain rate for Al, Cu, Ni and Ag. The implications on the cell/subgrain size and dislocation density are explored.
