What are jogs and kinks?

Jogs and kinks are atomic scale changes in direction of a dislocation line. Jogs are out of the slip plane and kinks lie in the dislocations slip plane. For both jogs and kinks the Burgers vector and line vector are those of the dislocation, the line vector being along the direction of the jog or the kink.

What is kink energy?

Kink movement Kinks facilitate the movement of dislocations along its glide plane under shear stress, and is directly responsible for plastic deformation of crystals. Higher thermal energy assists in the generation of kinks, as well as increasing atomic vibrations and promoting dislocation motion.

What is kink deformation?

Kinking is a secondary deformation mode of crystalline materials being controlled. by slip and often occurring as an accommodation mechanism for twins. However, it can also be considered to be a deformation mode in its own right.

Can edge dislocations glide?

A dislocation is able to glide in that slip plane which contains both the line of the dislocation and its Burgers vector. The edge dislocation is confined to glide in one plane only.

What are the two types of dislocation loops?

Three generic dislocation types are identified: (1) Edge dislocations with b normal to t, (2) Screw dislocation with b parallel to t, and (3) Mixed dislocations for which b and t have an arbitrary relative orientation.

What is kinked line?

A kink is a bend or a twist in an otherwise straight line, like a kink in a garden hose that blocks water from flowing freely. When something kinks, it bends to form a kink or curl — if your hair kinks in the rain, it gets tightly curly. You can also have a kink in your neck, a tight muscle that cramps painfully.

What is banding kink?

Kink banding is a phenomenon seen across many scales. It is a potential failure mode for any layered, laminated or fibrous material, held together by external pressure or some form of internal matrix, and subjected to compression parallel to the layers.

What are twin bands?

Bands across a crystal grain, observed on a polished and etched section, where crystallographic orientations have a mirror-image relationship to the orientation of the matrix grain across a composition plane that is usually parallel to the sides of the band. previous: Twin.

What are edge and screw dislocations?

The difference between edge and screw dislocation is that the edge dislocation occurs when an extra half-plane of atoms exists in the middle of the crystal lattice whereas the screw dislocation occurs when the planes of atoms in the crystal lattice trace a helical path around the dislocation line.

What is dislocation and its types?

Dislocations are generated and move when a stress is applied. The motion of dislocations allows slip-plastic deformation to occur. There are two types of dislocations: edge and screw. High dislocation density results in a large number of dislocation interactions, which results in high strength and hardness.

Is glide motion conservative?

Generally speaking, we define: Conservative movement of dislocations = movement in the glide plane = glide (for short) = movement without assistance of point defects. Non conservative movement of dislocations = movement not in the glide plane = climb (for short) = movement needing the assistance of point defects.
