Abstract
A polycrystalline model is proposed to model the large plastic deformation and texture evolutions in tantalum over a wide range of strain rates at room temperature. The mechanical behaviour is discussed in terms of back and effective stresses with the help of qualitative and quantitative TEM observations, Using these observations, an elasto-visco-plastic formulation for b.c.c. crystals is developed in the thermal activation framework.
