## Ahstractxrack closure experiments were performed on 6063-T6 Al-alloy, using COD gauge for various overload ratios (1.67, 1.87 and 2.06) and different prestrains (0, 3 and 6%). On the basis of these experiments some relations are developed. The delay period after application of single overload i

β¦ Synopsis
By an approach similar to that of Campbell, a generalized equation of plastic stabilit! is derived. valid in the presence of both mechanical and machining defects. The analysis indicates that machining defects will grow from the initiation of flow, and that their intluence on flow localization is an order of magnitude greater than that of mechanical defects. With regard to the latter, the generalized equation demonstrates that the stability criteria of Hart, and of Jonas. Holt and Coleman are not in conflict, but refer to different stages of neck development distinguished by whether the strain rate or the area of cross-section is taken as the relevant variable.
The analysis is extended to include the generation of both spherical and planar defects during straining. Both processes are shown to increase tensile instability by reducing the effective values of the work hardening coefficient and rate sensitivity. It is shown that when the crack or cavity generation rate varies along the specimen axis, initial defects are not required to initiate tlow localization. In the presence of several incipient necks, a defect generation rate gradient can also lead to the localization of flow at a single site.

une approche semblable B celle de Campbell, est etablie une bquation g&&alisPe de la stabiliti plastique. valable en prtsence B la fois de dtfauts mkcaniques et d'usinage. L'analyse montre que les dCfauts d'usinage s'aggravent d& le debut de l'icoulement plastique. et que leur influence sur la localisation de la dtformation est d'un ordre d'amplitude plus grand que celle des difauts mbcaniques. Pour ceux-ci l'kquation gtn&alisbe demontre que les critires de stabilitC de Hart et de Jonas, Holt et Coleman ne sont pas en opposition, mais se rkfirent a des stades ditT&entj du dtveloppement de la striction suivant que la vitesse de d&formation ou l'aire de la section de I'eprouvette est prise comme refirence.
L'analyse est &endue pour inclure la gCn6ration de defauts sphl-riques et plans durant la diformation. Les deux processus augmentent l'instabilitk plastique en reduisant les valeurs efficaces des coefficients d'Ccrouissage et de sensibilitk g la vitesse. Quand la vitesse de gtntration de fissures ou de cavites varie le long de l'kprouvette, il est montr.6 que la localisation de la dCformation se produit mZme sans defaut initial. Le gradient de vitesse de gineration de defauts peut aussi conduire g la localisation de la d&formation en un site particulier malgr6 la naissance de plusieurs strictions.

Ah&act-It has been suggested that the crack closure concept can account for the retardation in crack growth rate following removal of tensile overloads. To test this possibility measurements of effective stress were made on center notched cracked specimens during tests in which tensile overloads wer
