  2. Crystal twinning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystal_twinning

    The twin thickness saturated once a critical residual dislocations’ density reached the coherent twin-parent crystal boundary. [ 33 ] [ 49 ] Significant attention has been paid to the crystallography , [ 50 ] morphology [ 51 ] and macro mechanical effects [ 52 ] of deformation twinning.

  3. 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.

  4. Anti-phase domain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-phase_domain

    In mixed oxidation state materials like magnetite, antiphase domains and antiphase domain boundaries can occur as a result of charge-ordering even though there are no changes in atom locations. [4] For example, the reconstructed magnetite (100) surface contains alternating Fe II pairs and Fe III pairs in the first subsurface layer. [ 4 ]

  5. Grain boundary - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grain_boundary

    Grain boundaries are two-dimensional defects in the crystal structure, and tend to decrease the electrical and thermal conductivity of the material. Most grain boundaries are preferred sites for the onset of corrosion [1] and for the precipitation of new phases from the solid. They are also important to many of the mechanisms of creep. [2]

  6. Nanowire - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nanowire

    Spontaneous nanowire formation by non-catalytic methods were explained by the dislocation present in specific directions [20] [21] or the growth anisotropy of various crystal faces. More recently, after microscopy advancement, the nanowire growth driven by screw dislocations [22] [23] or twin boundaries [24] were demonstrated.

  7. Vacancy defect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacancy_defect

    In crystallography, a vacancy is a type of point defect in a crystal where an atom is missing from one of the lattice sites. [2] Crystals inherently possess imperfections, sometimes referred to as crystallographic defects. Vacancies occur naturally in all crystalline materials.

  8. Dislocation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dislocation

    The theory describing the elastic fields of the defects was originally developed by Vito Volterra in 1907. [4] The term 'dislocation' referring to a defect on the atomic scale was coined by G. I. Taylor in 1934. [5] Prior to the 1930s, one of the enduring challenges of materials science was to explain plasticity in microscopic terms.

  9. Fault detection and isolation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fault_detection_and_isolation

    The time frequency approach for machine fault diagnosis can be divided into two broad categories: linear methods and the quadratic methods. The difference is that linear transforms can be inverted to construct the time signal, thus, they are more suitable for signal processing, such as noise reduction and time-varying filtering.
