A study of slip line lengths in aluminum single crystals during transient deformation

Slip line length measurements have been carried out on oriented single crystals of high purity aluminum to qualitatively check the predictions of a new theory of plastic flow in strain hardened metals. This theory states that the slip line length L will be a function of the stress, σ, the yield stre...
