Slip direction of the material.
It is the shear stress resolved along the slip direction on the slip
plane that initiates plastic deformation.
Yield will begin on a slip system when the shear stress on this
system first reaches a critical value (critical resolved shear
stress, crss), independent of the tensile stress or any other
normal stress on the lattice plane.

Theoretical strength of a perfect crystal
Although some of the sophisticated calculations of theoretical strength of a
crystal predict values in the order of /10 -/30, the experimental yield
strengths of materials yield values which are orders of magnitude less than
the predicted theoretical strength!
b = slip distance
Peierls-Nabarro stress
Displacement b is obtained by a localized motion of atoms rather than
simultaneous shear of a perfect plane.
The stress required to move the dislocation along the slip plane is called the
Peierls-Nabarro stress and it is very small compared to the theoretical
strength (analogous to movement of a carpet)

Plastic deformation of bicrystals

Plastic deformation of bicrystals
In the literature, the deformation of bicrystals of different materials has been studied extensively.
Detailed investigations have been carried out, for instance,
on tin,

Plastic deformation of bicrystals
Livingston and Chalmers, pioneers in this field, concluded from their work on aluminum
bicrystals that, in order to keep the macroscopic plastic compatibility across the grain boundary,
bicrystals have to deform by multiple slip.

Hook and Hirth suggested in their studies on Fe3%Si bicrystals that the elastic incompatibility at
the grain boundaries results in the activation of secondary slip systems. These investigations built
their discussions essentially on intergranular incompatibility assuming otherwise homogeneous
behavior of the two abutting crystals,

Recent detailed studies by Rey and Zaoui on Cu bicrystals, revealed that the presence of grain
boundaries can also give rise to considerable intragranular heterogeneity. Rey and Zaoui found
that intragranular nonhomogeneity leads to internal stresses inside each of the two neighboring
crystals entailing activation of additional slip systems and considerable corresponding hardening
effects.

Plastic deformation of polycrystals
Plastic deformation of a polycrystal differs from that of
a single crystals in two respects:
According to M.F. Ashby, the deformation of polycrystals can be divided into two parts:
Thus, the total dislocation density is simply the sum of the statistically-stored and
geometrically-necessary dislocation densities. In bulk metals and their alloys, the
contributions from statistically stored dislocations to strain accumulations are much
greater than those due to geometrically necessary dislocations.
