TL;DR: In this paper, a phenomenological model is proposed to incorporate the rate of dynamic recovery into the flow kinetics, which has been successful in matching many experimental data quantitatively, and it has been shown that the proportionality between the flow stress and the square root of the dislocation density holds, to a good approximation, over the entire regime; mild deviations arc primarily attributed to differences between the various experimental techniques used.

TL;DR: In this paper, a finite element formulation which derives constitutive response from crystal plasticity theory is used to examine localized deformation in fcc polycrystals, and the predicted local inhomogeneities are meeting various requirements that make them possible nucleation sites for recrystallization.

TL;DR: In this paper, the development of nonuniformities in tensile deformation and its dependence on material parameters and external conditions have been reanalyzed using the state-parameter formulation of constitutive laws, avoiding the integrated strain as a variable.

TL;DR: In this article, the dislocation structure produced during deformation at low and intermediate temperatures is described by a statistical distribution of segments under varying driving forces and resistances to rearrangement.
