Stress-Strain Characteristics and Slip-Band Formation In Metal Crystals: Effect of Crystal Orientation

JOM Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

The plastic properties of extended silver and copper crystals of varying purity were studied as a function of crystal orientation in the early stages of flow. Variations in the gross shape of the shear stress-shear diagram and in the properties of critical shear stress and shear-hardening coefficient were correlated with changes in slip-band developments. The phenomenon of work hardening is discussed in terms of the existing dislocation theory.
