Localized deformation in the form of narrow shear bands are often observed to develop after larger plastic deformations in metals, polymers and powders. Shear bands, being a form of large plastic deformation, are usually the precursors of ductile fracture. Therefore, an improved knowledge of localized deformation, including instability, shear bands, damage and fracture, play a particularly significant role in a wide variety of engineering topics. One example is material processing. Since the 1970s shear banding has been extensively studied by mechanical and metallurgical engineers. There is a pressing requirement in physics and engineering to summarize the knowledge gained and to assist students and researchers to apply this knowledge in their respective areas of technology. This book is an invaluable reference source on the topic of adiabatic shear localization. It provides a systematic description of various aspects of adiabatic shear banding, and the various case studies describe the ways in which the knowledge of adiabatic shear localization can be used in several applications.In this way, readers can easily follow the different approaches and transfer concepts and techniques to help solve the problems they encounter in their own fields of interest.

Adiabatic shear localization is a mode of failure that occurs in dynamic loading. It is characterized by thermal softening occurring over a very narrow region of a material and is usually a precursor to ductile fracture and catastrophic failure. This reference source is the revised and updated version of the first detailed study of the mechanics and modes of adiabatic shear localization in solids. Building on the success of the first edition, the book provides a systematic description of a number of aspects of adiabatic shear banding. The concepts and techniques described in this work can usefully be applied to solve a multitude of problems encountered by those investigating fracture and damage in materials, impact dynamics, metal working and other areas. Specific chapters focus on energetic materials, polymers, bulk metal glasses, and the mathematics of shear banding as well as the numerical modeling of them. With its detailed coverage of the subject, this book is of great interest to academics and researchers into materials performance as well as professionals.
