| Abstract: | The peculiarities of the formation and the development of reorientated bands in crystals are considered. Reorientated bands are investigated experimentally in MgO single crystals under the compression testing. It is shown that the misorientation between the material in the band interior and the surrounding volume can reach some degrees. The data of electron microscopy investigations of dislocation structure of such bands are performed. The disclination model is proposed for the propogation of the reorientated bands. This model permits to explain the laws of the band development, for example, the formation of discrete areas with reoriented crystal lattice ahead the terminated band. |
