  "definition": "A localized band of plastic deformation that propagates through a material under tensile stress, appearing as a visible line or pattern on the surface. These bands form in certain ductile metals, such as low-carbon steel, after the yield point is reached. The formation of Lüders bands indicates non-uniform yielding and can affect the surface finish of formed parts.",
