Abstract

The mechanisms which give rise to substructural strength originate in the dislocation character of the substructure boundary, in the size of sources for continued slip which the boundaries permit, and in the size of the cells or subgrains. The interrelation of these factors must be considered in obtaining a general view of the strengthening.
