Ductile behaviour, however, defined simply as the capacity of a material to deform to a substantial strain without the tendency to localise the flow into faults (Rutter 1986), can be the result of a variety of microstructural deformation mechanisms, including microcracking (in the case of cataclastic flow); the description of ductility holds no mechanistic connotation (Rutter 1986).
