Grain Boundaries and Crystalline Plasticity interconnects 6 PolyurethanesDescription Author: L. Priester ISBN 978 1 84821 327 2 Summary The main purpose of this book is to put forward the fundamental role of grain boundaries in the plasticity of crystalline materials. To understand this role requires a multi scale approach to plasticity: starting from the atomic description of a grain boundary and its defects, moving on to the elemental interaction processes between dislocations and grain boundaries, and finally showing
