Abstract
It is established that the instability of plastic flow observed in a hardening-softening regime in Zr-1% Nb alloy at the parabolic stage of the curve of strain hardening (irrespective of the dislocation-related) is accompanied by the geometric hardening (softening) as a result of the reorientation of slip planes relative to the axis of loading. This reorientation accounts for a periodic change in the Schmid factors for prismatic and conjugate basal slip systems.
