Abstract
The formation of deformation twins in twinning-induced plasticity steels was observed in transmission electron microscope by an ex situ tensile test. The twinning process initially includes formation of extended dislocations at primary slip plane, then cross-slip to a conjugate slip plane with dissociation of the leading partial into a stair-rod dislocation and an emitted partial, and finally un-faulting of the original faults and formation of Frank partials. Repetition of the operation of the process on successive conjugate planes results in the formation of deformation twins. The formation mechanism of deformation twins can thus be explained by improving the stair-rod cross-slip model.
