What causes Luders lines?
Lüders, the mechanism that stimulates their appearance is known as dynamic strain aging, or the inhibition of dislocation motion by interstitial atoms (in steels, typically carbon and nitrogen), around which “atmospheres” or “zones” naturally congregate.
Why are Luders bands Bad?
Lüders bands typically occur in low carbon steel but not in other alloys such as aluminum and titanium. This is because work hardening suppresses localized straining, or strain aging, resulting in uniform plastic flow after yield. Lüders band formation can pose problems in metal forming.
How do I stop Luders band?
These dislocations in the conjugate slip plane break free as the stress concentration increases and form Lüders lines. In some aluminum alloys, type B Lüders can be eliminated by cold rolling the material. In Al-Mn-Mg alloys, a 20% cold reduction entirely suppressed the formation of Lüders.
What is Luders effect?
The Lüders effect, referred to as the yield point phenomenon, is characterized by a sharp yield point and a subsequent yield plateau. An ideal plastic plateau, due to the propagation of a localized plastic deformation, is manifested; the occurrence of this plateau is accompanied by a decrease in the yield stress.
What is proof stress?
The proof stress of a material is defined as the amount of stress it can endure until it undergoes a relatively small amount of plastic deformation. Specifically, proof stress is the point at which the material exhibits 0.2% of plastic deformation.

Why do we use 0.2 proof stress?
Although as mentioned by others this is not universally accepted, in my opinion the reason that the 0.2% strain was used for proof stress, is that it offers a more straight forward comparison with the yield stress of steel. Steel has a distinct yield point, that you can use to set a good safety margin before failure.
