Revisited Storage and Dynamic Recovery of Dislocation Density Evolution Law: Toward a Generalized Kocks–Mecking Model of Strain‐Hardening

AbstractThe current work extends the well established approach of Kocks and Mecking by a more realistic description of strain‐hardening using an original dislocation density law with a revisited physical understanding of dynamic recovery, without new material parameters and keeping only one internal variable.
