• Perfect dislocation
A dislocation, as it moves past along its slip plane, leaves
the atoms in positions equivalent to those they occupied originally.

• Crystallography Textures
- The grains within polycrystalline materials have prefer orientation
- Texture extend depends on many conditions: composition, crystal
structure, plastic deformation process, etc.
- Texture is usually not complete.
• Plastic Anisotropy
- In single crystal, the deformation usually is anisotropy since
the plastic deformation can only occur along the slip system
- In polycrystalline materials, since the grain orientations are
uniformly distributed, the deformation is isotropic
- However, in textured materials, the deformation is anisotropic
Textured Titanium sheet:
(0001) plane // to sheet surface
t l <1120> // to rolling direction
w
Since deformation can occur on
(0001), (1010) and (1011) planes,
a but only in the <1120> direction
no deformation in thickness direction

- Cross slip
• For edge dislocation since its bt, the glide is restricted to a plane defined
by the cross product of the Burgers vector and line direction
• For screw dislocation since b//t, it can switch from one slip plane to an
intersecting plane of the same family

• Only two planes remained undistorted: k1 plane (also
called composition plane) and plane OC (k2)
