Fig. 5 Twinning planes in titanium. Although most twinning occurs along the (1 1 02) plane, deformation at room temperature also takes place along other planes. More

Fig. 4 Twinning in high-purity titanium. The twins are the needlelike bands in the grains. In some instances, the twins extend entirely across a grain. Etchant: 10% HF, 5% HNO 3 . Original magnification: 250× More

Fig. 27 Likelihood of twinning and cleavage for the three common lattices (fcc, bcc, and hcp). An increase in strain rate or a decrease in temperature increases the likelihood of twinning. The fcc metals twin only with difficulty and generally do not fracture by cleavage. See text More

Fig. 6 Orientation relationships for {1,1,2} ⟨1,1,−1⟩ twinning in the bcc lattice. It is assumed that a crack is propagating on the (0,0,1) cleavage plane and then on the (1,1,−2) K 1 plane in the [111] direction. (The required shear direction for simple shear twinning on the (1,1,−2) plane More

Fig. 6 Representation of mechanical twinning in a hexagonal close-packed metal. The diagonal planes are twinning planes. In the formation of a twin, each atom moves a short distance with respect to its neighbor. More

Fig. 28 Likelihood of twinning and cleavage for the three common lattices: face-centered cubic (fcc), body-centered cubic (bcc), and hexagonal close-packed (hcp). An increase in strain rate or a decrease in temperature increases the likelihood of twinning. The fcc metals twin only More
