  2. Crystal twinning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystal_twinning

    Merohedral twinning occurs when the lattices of the contact twins superimpose in three dimensions, such as by relative rotation of one twin from the other. [8] An example is metazeunerite. [9] Contact twinning characteristically creates reentrant faces where faces of the crystal segments meet on the contact plane at an angle greater than 180°. [3]

  4. Macle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macle

    Macle is a term used in crystallography. [1] It is a crystalline form, twin-crystal or double crystal (such as chiastolite). It is crystallographic twin according to the spinel twin law and is seen in octahedral crystals or minerals such as diamond and spinel. The twin law name comes from the fact that is commonly observed in the mineral spinel ...

  6. Crystallographic defect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystallographic_defect

    A twin boundary is a defect that introduces a plane of mirror symmetry in the ordering of a crystal. For example, in cubic close-packed crystals, the stacking sequence of a twin boundary would be ABCABCBACBA. On planes of single crystals, steps between atomically flat terraces can also be regarded as planar defects.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pericline

    Pericline also refers to a doubly plunging anticline or syncline.. Pericline is a form of albite exhibiting elongate prismatic crystals. [1]Pericline twinning is a type of crystal twinning which show fine parallel twin laminae typically found in the alkali feldspars microcline. [2]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TWIP_steel

    Therefore, a quantitative study of deformation twinning in TWIP steels is critical to understand their strain-hardening mechanisms and mechanical properties. Deformation twinning can be considered as a nucleation and growth process. Twin growth is assumed to proceed by co-operative movement of Shockley partials on subsequent {111} planes.

  9. Tin cry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tin_cry

    Tin cry is often demonstrated using a simple science experiment. A bar of tin will "cry" repeatedly when bent until it breaks. The experiment can then be recycled by melting and recrystallizing the metal. The low melting point of tin, 231.9 °C (449.4 °F; 505.0 K), makes re-casting easy.
