Scaling in the Local Strain-Rate Field during Jerky Flow in an Al-3%Mg Alloy
Jerky flow in alloys, or the Portevin-Le Chatelier effect, presents an outstanding example of self-organization phenomena in plasticity. Recent acoustic emission investigations revealed that its microscopic dynamics is governed by scale invariance manifested as power-law statistics of intermittent e...
