Microbuckling Instability and the Second Yield during the Deformation of Semicrystalline Polyethylene

Deformation instabilities, such as microbuckling or lamellar fragmentation due to slip localization, play a very important role in the deformation of semicrystalline polymers, although it still not well explored. Such instabilities often appear necessary to modify the deformation path and facilitate...
