shear bands

Metals; Metallurgy

Bands in which deformation has been concentrated inhomogeneously in sheets that extend across regional groups of grains. Usually only one system is present in each regional group of grains, different ...

shear strength

Metals; Metallurgy

The stress required to produce fracture in the plane of cross section, the conditions of loading being such that the directions of force and of resistance are parallel and opposite although their ...

shear crack

Metals; Metallurgy

A diagonal, transgranular crack caused by shear stresses.

shear steel

Metals; Metallurgy

Steel produced by forge welding together several bars of blister steel, providing a more homogeneous product.
