RESUMEN
A mechanical model for waves impinging different configurations of multiple shear bands already formed in a ductile material, allows to analyze the ways in which dynamic interactions promote failure. It is shown that the presence of more than one shear band may lead to resonance and correspondent growth of a shear band or, conversely, to its annihilation. At the same time, multiple scattering may bring about focusing or, conversely, shielding from waves. The proposed mechanical modelling, represents the only way to analyze the fine micromechanisms governing material collapse, and discloses the complex interplay between dynamics and shear band growth or arrest.
