Description
Summary:The influence of the stacking-fault energy on the interaction between a lattice dislocation and a Σ3 grain boundary has been investigated in copper. The entrance processes of the dissociated dislocations as observed by transmission electron microscopy (conventional, weak-beam and image contrast simulation) are supported by atomistic simulations. They may be explained, on the basis of theoretical models, by the occurrence of a constriction phenomenon. The observed processes constitute the first steps of the intergranular stress accommodation which plays an important role in the plastic deformation of polycrystals.
