Abstract

Repeated stress-relaxation experiments are used to characterize the deformation parameters in 3 types of single crystals (Cu, Ni3Al and Ge) in which different dislocation mechanisms are known to operate. Mobile dislocation exhaustion rates and the amplitude of the yield point at reloading after stress-relaxation are measured. These two parameters are discussed in terms of the work-hardening coefficient in monotonic tests.
