Analytical shear-band process zone model incorporating nonlinear viscous effects and initial defects
John D. Clayton
Experimental, theoretical, and numerical studies of adiabatic shear in ductile metals suggest initial defects such as pores or material imperfections increase shear-band susceptibi…

Analysis of adiabatic shear coupled to ductile fracture and melting in viscoplastic metals
John D. Clayton
Material failure by adiabatic shear is analyzed in viscoplastic metals that can demonstrate up to three distinct softening mechanisms: thermal softening, ductile fracture, and melt…

Analysis of shear localization in viscoplastic solids with pressure-sensitive structural transformations
John D. Clayton
Localization, in the form of adiabatic shear, is analyzed in viscoplastic solids that may undergo structural transformation driven by pressure, shear stress, temperature, and magne…
