Slip systems

Slip systems are a combination of highest planar density planes and highest linear density directions. FCC and BCC have more slip systems than HCP which explains why HCP metals are much more brittle in nature.

We COMPLETELY skipped over this explanation in my class. Thank you so much for the video, Taylor!

[@HazzCraft]

cheers, this was explained much more clearly and consisely than my professor did.

[@jasonstone7824]

What a surprise to hear the voice I've been listening too on the materialism podcast explain some material from a lecture I missed haha

[@TaylorSparks]

Yes!! One and the same. Tons of MSE content here

[@高瑞陽-d3s]

Thank you so much for the clear explanation!

[@suheladesilva2933]

Thank you very much for your videos.

[@njpool1]

Thanks for the explanation. This was very easy to understand!

[@SuperFrostyn]

Thank you very much for this explanation. I am an exchange student from Sweden in France and unfortunately I don't understand the French lectures..yet!

[@Fred-l2h]

This is so clear, thank you! Can you please expand on why the slip direction is the one with the highest linear density?

[@TaylorSparks]

Not entirely certain. I would assume it's the one that minimizes strain during slip

[@andreis8100]

explained it very clearly! Thanks!

[@yusufaziz5348]

Thank you sir for the amazing explanation!!!

[@TaylorSparks]

Glad to help!

[@user-kl4oh2co2y]

Thank you sir. a short question: In the case of a rhombohedral or simple cubic material, would there be only 3 slip planes? Because the planes with the highest density are (001), (100), and (010)? Is it then also true that because of the low amount of slip systems, it is more likely to twin?

[@ralisgroffen]

I don't undarstand why it is not 8 instead of 12. My explaination: every plane has isolated one corner, so how can you count 12?

[@arjunganesh4372]

is there anything we should know about the magnitude in a slip system, Sir??...thank you SOO much by the way for making slip systems way more cooler and simple to understand, Sir🔥♥️

[@TaylorSparks]

I wish I knew more about the magnitude, but I don't.

[@kingscreed1511]

simple, concise, and accurate. Can u replace my professor please?

[@TaylorSparks]

Lol. Enroll at the University of Utah in the fall and take my class

[@XerathMTA]

@@TaylorSparks you're a professor? congrats

[@TaylorSparks]

@@XerathMTA yes! My dream job!!

[@saintbleemer7696]

Thank you ❤

[@kartiksgame2335]

My prof. looking for you... 😂

[@vid_sh_itsme4340]

Sir, what is slip direction and how to find it?
