1 SLIP ON HCP
Slip in hexagonal close packed (hcp) metals is much more limited than in bcc and fcc crystal
structures. (Note that the h.c.p. crystal structure is suitable to sliding by the slip planes, for
example basal. Slip planes of h.c.p. structure are highly dense atoms planes due to close packed
structure that makes sliding along such planes more easy. In fact, the h.c.p. structure has just 3
independent slip systems, that limits the homogenius plastic deformation. Thus, the
policrystalline of h.c.p. is extremelly difficult to deform, while the slip in h.c.p. can be realized
quite easy) This is because few active slip systems exist in hcp metals. The result of the small
number of slip systems is that the metal is generally brittle.

Cadmium, zinc, magnesium, titanium, and beryllium have a slip plane at {0001} and a slip
direction of <1120>. This creates a total of three slip systems, depending on orientation.
(Remember that a slip system is a combination of a slip plane and a slip direction) Other
combinations are also possible.

There are two types of dislocations in crystals that can induce slip-edge dislocations and screw
dislocations. Edge dislocations have the direction of the burgers vector perpendicular to the
dislocation line, while screw dislocations have the direction of the burgers vector parallel to the
dislocation line. The type of dislocations generated largely depends on the direction of the
applied stress, temperature and other factors. Screw dislocations can easily cross slip from one
plane to another if the other slip plane contains the direction of the burgers vector.

2.2 Crystallography of deformation twinning in hcp crystals

For a comprehensive treatment of the crystallography of deformation twining in various crystal
systems the reader is referred to the textbooks of Christian [2] , Kelly and Groves [10] , papers of
Bevis and Crocker [3,11] and Partridge[12]and more recent work of Christian and Mahajan [13].
Here we briefly review the basic crystallography of mechanical twinning pertinent to the present
work. On the microscopic scale, deformation twinning is accomplished by coordinated
displacements of atoms along well-defined crystallographic directions on well-defined
crystallographic planes, resulting in homogeneous shearing of the crystal lattice and formation of
a new lattice in twinorientation to the parent lattice.
Fig. 1
shows a well-known diagrammatic representation of a twinning shear distortinga sphere (parent
lattice) into an ellipsoid (twin lattice) in aprojection onto the so-called plane of shear,S. The
crystal-lographic relationship between these two lattices is described by four interdependent
twinning elementsK1,K2,g1,and g2 [2,14]. The twinning shear occurs in the K1plane along the
g1
direction. TheK1 plane, the invariant plane, preserves its crystallographic identity in the twin lat-
tice. The conjugate to the twinning plane isK2; it rotates to
