• TITLE: Plastic Flow Macrolocalization: Autowave and Quasi-Particle

  AUTHORS: Lev B. Zuev, Svetlana A. Barannikova

  KEYWORDS: Localization, Plastic Deformation, Autowave, Quasi-Particle

  JOURNAL NAME: Journal of Modern Physics, Vol.1 No.1, May 7, 2010

  ABSTRACT: A new approach is proposed to describe the autowave processes responsible for plastic deformation localiza-tion in metals and alloys. The existence of a quasi-particle, which corresponds to a localized plastic flow autowave, is postulated and its characteristics are determined. The above postulate leads to a number of cor-ollaries and quantitative assessments that are considered herein. The deformation processes occurring on the macro- and micro-scale levels are found to be directly related.
