Dislocations-Linear Defects
Burgers vector: Vector, b, invariant for a given dislocation line
and characterizing the magnitude of lattice distortions
associated with it.

Screw Dislocation
Figure 4.5 (a) A screw dislocation within a crystal. (b) The screw dislocation in (a) as viewed from above. The
dislocation line extends along line AB. Atom positions above the slip plane are designated by open circles,
those below by solid circles.

Mixed Dislocation
Figure 4.6 (a) Schematic representation of a dislocation that has edge, screw, and mixed character. (b) Top
view, where open circles denote atom positions above the slip plane, and solid circles, atom positions below.
At point A, the dislocation is pure screw, while at point B, it is pure edge. For regions in between where there
is curvature in the dislocation line, the character is mixed edge and screw.

Mechanisms of Strengthening in Metals
Figure 7.14 The motion of a dislocation as it encounters a grain boundary, illustrating how the boundary
acts as a barrier to continued slip. Slip planes are discontinuous and change directions across the
boundary.

Strain hardening

tensile strength, and (c) the decrease in ductility (%EL) with percent cold work.

Strain hardening
Solution:
It is first necessary to determine the percent cold work
resulting from the deformation. This is possible using
Equation 7.8:
15.2𝑚𝑚 2 12.2𝑚𝑚 2
2 𝜋− 2 𝜋
%𝐶𝑊 = 2 × 100 = 35.6%
15.2𝑚𝑚
2 𝜋
The tensile strength is read directly from the curve for
copper (Figure 7.19b) as 340MPa. From Figure 7.19c, the
ductility at 35.6%CW is about 7%EL. 26

Design Example 7.1
Solution:
Let us first consider the consequences (in terms of yield
strength and ductility) of cold working in which the brass
specimen diameter is reduced from 6.4 mm (designated by
𝑑0 ) to 5.1 mm 𝑑𝑖 . The %CW may be computed from
Equation 7.8 as

Design Example 7.1
From Figures 7.19a and 7.19c, a yield strength of 410 MPa
and a ductility of 8%EL are attained from this deformation.
According to the stipulated criteria, the yield strength is
satisfactory; however, the ductility is too low.
