Shear band formation is caused by the heat generated in regions with the highest strain rate. With insufficient time for diffusion of this heat, a localized thermal softening of the metal occurs which enhances plastic flow in a thin zone. This localization of plastic strain into an adiabatic shear band during rapid plastic shear shares some interesting similarities with combustion/ignition problems for chemically reactive systems. Here the author starts from some research in combustion and in plasticity, and establishes a similar connection in modeling some localization problems in polymer deformation. The author presents also a reformulation of these ideas. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0933.00022].
