Local plastic strain inhomogeneity in a ZEK100 Mg alloy

Magnesium alloys have great potential for lightweighting applications in the transportation industry. It is known, however, that Mg and Mg-alloys exhibit large plastic strain heterogeneity. Such heterogeneity is important both from the perspective of formability and fracture if such sheet materials...
