*CHECKS FOR LOCALIZATION*
=========================

Analyses one or more engineering or true stress-strain curves to detect the onset of localisation (necking). Returns a dataset summarising whether localisation was detected and the corresponding strain/stress values for each curve.

When to use

Classification: **process**.

     - —
     - 
     - One or more engineering or true stress-strain curves (vector format) to be checked for localisation; leave empty if curves are provided downstream.
   * - Type of Curve
     - curve_type
     - scalar
     - eng
     - 
     - Specifies whether the input curves are engineering stress-strain ('eng') or true stress-strain ('true'); defaults to 'eng' — change to 'true' when working with converted true-stress curves.
