What is Statistical Thermodynamics of Strain Hardening in Polycrystalline Solids about?

This paper starts with a systematic rederivation of the statistical thermodynamic equations of motion for dislocation-mediated plasticity proposed in 2010 by Langer, Bouchbinder and Lookman. It then uses that theory to explain the anomalous rate-hardening behavior reported in 1988 by Follansbee and Kocks, and to explore the relation between hardening rate and grain size reported in 1995 by Meyers et al. A central theme is the need for physics-based, nonequilibrium analyses in developing predictive theories of the strength of polycrystalline materials.
