Figure 2: Dislocation trajectory and Schmid law deviation in BCC metals.

From: Plastic anisotropy and dislocation trajectory in BCC metals

Figure 2

(a) Dislocation trajectory between easy core configurations obtained by DFT in Nb, Mo and Fe, with the corresponding deviation angle α. (b) Peierls stress variations with crystal orientations predicted by the modified Schmid law of equation (2) (coloured lines) and compared with the experimental data at 4.2 K (ref. 12) (black lines). Schmid law is indicated in dashed grey lines.
