![عکس صفحه اول مقاله: Plasticity size effects in tension and compression of single crystals Plasticity size effects in tension and compression of single crystals](/preview/png/797069.png)
The effect of size and loading conditions on the tension and compression stress–strain response of micron-sized planar crystals is investigated using discrete dislocation plasticity. The crystals are taken to have a single active slip system and both small-strain and finite-strain analyses are carried out. When rotation of the tensile axis is constrained, the build-up of geometrically necessary dislocations results in a weak size dependence but a strong Bauschinger effect. On the other hand, when rotation of the tensile axis is unconstrained, there is a strong size dependence, with the flow strength increasing with decreasing specimen size, and a negligible Bauschinger effect. Below a certain specimen size, the flow strength of the crystals is set by the nucleation strength of the initially present Frank–Read sources. The main features of the size dependence are the same for the small-strain and finite-strain analyses. However, the predicted hardening rates differ and the finite-strain analyses give rise to some tension–compression asymmetry.
