Abstract

Inherent twinnability of face-centered-cubic (fee) metals was analyzed based on the direct competition between twinning partial dislocation nucleation and trailing partial dislocation nucleation, with which the twinnability of fee metals can be simply expressed as function of the stacking-fault energy, the unstable stacking-fault energy, and the unstable twinning-fault energy of fee metals. The predicted twinnability ranking matched well with former experimental results and provided a physical insight to understand twinnability from crystallographic orientation and fault energy parameters. © 2011 The Chinese Society for Metals.
