Dislocation Microstructures and Twinning Initiation in Cu-Al
Alpha FCC Single Crystals: Experimental and Numerical Analyses
P. Franciosi,1F. Tranchant,2and J. Vergnol2
Abstract
The dislocation structures at the onset of twinning for <111> tension tests on variously prestrained FCC single crystals are experimentaly and numericaly analyzed to investigate twinning initiation conditions and
discuss the appropriate criterion expression.
