1.1.1 Metal ductility

Ductility is understood as the intrinsic ability of a material to undergo a certain amount of plastic deformation without fracture (or meso-crack formation). Ductile fracture of a metallic material occurs through the development of micro-voids or shear bands in the metal matrix, around inclusions or other discontinuities such as grain boundaries. Damage occurring at high plastic deformations is called ductile damage (as opposed to brittle...
