Adiabatic shear bands (ASBs) are a critical mechanism for damage initiation under high strain-rate shear impact, whereas the high-current-density-induced shear deformation mechanism of armature and rail materials remains unclear. This study employs a pulsed power source and an electromagnetic repulsion disk device to investigate the shear deformation characteristics of typical armature and rail materials under high strain rates (≥104 s-1 ) coupled with high current densities (≥108 A/m2 ). The results show that the ASB formation energy barrier decreases in the following order: pure copper, oxygen-free copper, CuCrZr alloy, Al2O3 dispersion-strengthened copper alloy, brass, and 7075 aluminum alloy. Therefore, 7075 aluminum alloy is the most prone to ASB formation, followed by brass, while other copper-based rail materials rarely exhibit ASB features. Both 7075 aluminum alloy and brass exhibit a current-induced suppression effect on crack propagation and ASB formation. Electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) analysis reveals that numerous fine equiaxed grains are present within the shear bands of 7075 aluminum, and the texture within the bands significantly differs from that of the surrounding matrix. With increasing current density, the grain size within the band increases, while the fraction of dynamically recrystallized grains decreases markedly. The formation of ultrafine grains and the texture evolution can be reasonably explained by mechanically assisted rotational dynamic recrystallization. The results indicate that thermal softening alone is insufficient to induce ASB formation; instead, softening caused by rotational dynamic recrystallization is the dominant mechanism. The current-induced temperature rise was calculated, and the yield strength drop under high-strain-rate loading with current was measured, based on which the width of adiabatic shear bands (ASBs) under current was determined. The theoretical predictions show good agreement with experimental results. The results indicate that the temperature rise and softening effect induced by pulsed current lead to an increase in ASB width, which intensifies energy dissipation, suppresses dynamic recrystallization, and inhibits the formation of adiabatic shear bands.
