Development of Misorientation in FCC Single Crystals Under Compression at Different Scales

Abstract

This article presents analysis of FCC single crystals local areas reorientation under compression. The reorientation process was examined at different scales, from sample size scale to that of dislocation substructure. It has been found that disorientation in meso and macro levels is determined by accumulation of misorientation at the level of dislocation subsystem. Our research allows quantifying of accumulated misorientation magnitude. The results of this study illustrate interrelation of rotational and translational deformation modes both at the same scale level and various scale levels.
