Plastic deformation of single crystals

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingChapter

Abstract

Chapter 3 is devoted to constitutive relations for metallic single crystals. After introducing the key concepts of crystallography, an overview of the experimental evidence of plastic deformation mechanisms is presented. The yield criteria for description of the onset of plastic deformation in cubic crystals are introduced. Applications of the most recent single crystal yield criterion to the prediction of the directionality of the macroscopic tensile properties of polycrystalline sheets are also provided.
