Dynamics of shear-transformation zones in amorphous plasticity: non-linear theory at low temperatures

Pechenik, Leonid

Original · EN

We use considerations of energy balance and dissipation to derive a self-consistent version of the shear-transformation-zone (STZ) theory of plastic deformation in amorphous solids. The theory is generalized to include arbitrary spatial orientations of STZs. Continuum equations for elasto-plastic material and their energy balance properties are discussed.
