Effect of heat treatment on stability of adiabatic shear bands in 4340 steel

The fingerprint of deformation in materials at large strains and at high strain rates is the formation of adiabatic shear bands. Adiabatic shear bands lead to unexpected failure of materials during service. This study investigated the possibility of eliminating adiabatic shear bands from materials s...
