Abstract
We study an instability occurring at high strain-rate deformations, induced by thermal softening properties of metals, and leading to the formation of shear bands. We consider adiabatic shear deformations of thermoviscoplastic materials and establish the existence of a family of focusing self-similar solutions that capture this instability. The self-similar solutions emerge as the net response resulting from the competition between Hadamard instability and viscosity. Their existence is turned into a problem of constructing a heteroclinic orbit for an associated dynamical system, which is achieved with the help of geometric singular perturbation theory.
