Plastic Deformation

[examorph]

EDIT: This problem is now solved after LOADS of searching but I have a new question below.

 

Also, just wanted to say sorry for all the questions I have been asking lately, I have been trying my best not to annoy you all by doing silly things like bumping my thread to say something not very important but you all have just helped me so much I just keep coming back for more

 

Thanks.

 

 

 

Question: Now I know about the ductile deformation is because of the dislocation of the chrystalographic planes slipping but what is brittlenes about, is this the opposite? Are the crystal planes harder to dislocate?

Moderator Note

examorph, in future could you please not edit out your OP entirely? If you've fixed the issue, a simple note at the end will suffice.

Ok sorry, I just didnt want anyone to get confused.

That's quite alright, it's not really a rule or anything, it's more of a friendly suggestion. Part of the point of having a forum like this is so that people can go back through old threads and use them as a learning tool. It saves a lot of confusion if the whole OP is there to read as well.

Ok, that question is also solved after a lot of researching.
