On the PLC Effect in a Particle Reinforced AA2017 Alloy
The Portevin–Le Châtelier (PLC) effect often results in serrated plastic flow during tensile testing of aluminum alloys. Its magnitude and characteristics are often sensitive to a material’s heat treatment condition and to the applied strain rate and deformation temperature. In this study, we analyz...
