Although it is possible in al mg alloys substitutional atom effect in mild steel where the size of the c atom is slightly larger than.
After the ultimate tensile stress has been reached yield point elongation common with low carbon steels have an upper and a lower yield point material starts yielding in one region before another results in lueder s bands stretcher strain marks.
Moreover on the surface of sheets stretcher strain st st marks frequently appear during metal forming processes 3 4.
Conventional sheet metal forming processes usually involve the simultaneous action of stretching and bending inducing strain stress gradients across the sheet thickness and complex strain paths.
You may not see in al and mn alloys.

Obviously such st st marks are not desirable since they decrease the quality of the final products such as the outer panels of cars and also they may sometimes lead to strain localization and fracture.
Sheet metal can be formed without heating cutting or welding and by using a shrinker stretcher tool.
Sharp yield point leads to sheet surface non uniform plastic deformation patterns called stretcher strain marks during stamping operations considerably deteriorating sheet metal product quality.
