Cover Story: Adiabatic shear localization is a prominent failure mode in the dynamic deformation of metals. Understanding underlying physical mechanisms is crucial for the design or selection of materials for impact or crashworthiness applications. This study develops analytical–numerical methods for mathematical modeling of shear localization by thermal softening, potential ductile fracture, and possible melting. A limit analysis reveals the criteria for localization by any of these three mechanisms, noting that fracture tends to inhibit subsequent thermal softening and melting. Important correlations among initial strength defects, threshold energies for ductile failure, and critical strains at which failure begins are uncovered. Calculations predict that ductile fracture precludes melting for loading conditions witnessed in torsional Kolsky-bar experiments on steel. View this paper
