Resolved Shear Stress
What do we need to move dislocations?
A Shear Stress!

Determining Active Slip System
There are two methods to determine which slip
system is active
BruteForce Method- Calculate angles for each slip
system for a given load and determine the maximum
Schmid Factor
Elegant Method- Use stereographic projection to
determine the active slip system graphically
Stereographic Projection Method

Determine the slip plane by taking the pole

of the triangle that is in the family of the slip

planes (i.e. for FCC this would be {111}) and
reflecting it off the opposite side of the
specified triangle
3 Determine the slip direction by taking the
pole of the triangle that is in the family of
directions (i.e. for FCC this would be <1-10>)
and reflecting it off the opposite side of the
specified triangle
Rotation of Crystal Lattice Under an
Applied Load
With increasing load, the slip plane and slip direction
align parallel to the tensile stress axis
This movement may be traced on the stereographic
projection
The tensile axis rotates toward the slip direction
eventually reaching the edge of the triangle
Note that during compression the slip direction rotates away
from the compressive axis
At the edge of the triangle a second slip system is
activated because it has an equivalent Schmid factor

Initial Elastic Strain- results from bond stretching (obeys

Hookes Law)
Stage I (easy glide)- results from slip on one slip system
Stage II- Multiple slip systems are active. A second slip
system becomes active when its Schmid factor increases to
the value of the primary slip system
In some extreme orientations of HCP crystals, the material
fractures rather than deforms plastically
