Abstract
An experimental study of plastic strain localization during static uniaxial tensile testing of steel specimens with asymmetric edge stress concentrators is performed. The study employs modern thermal imaging equipment capable of recording the temporal evolution of temperature fields during deformation. The proposed experimental methodology, based on infrared thermography, is shown to be applicable for investigating the kinetics of elastoplastic deformation and for determining the ultimate state of the material in the stress concentration zone.
