Work Softening

Work Softening is a deformation mechanism characterized by a reduction in material flow stress during plastic deformation due to microstructural changes such as dislocation rearrangement or dynamic recovery, distinguishing it from other hardening or softening processes that involve phase transformation or grain refinement.
