Question

A single crystal of an FCC metal is oriented so that [001] direction is parallel to the applied stress of 5000 psi. Calculate the resolved shear stress acting on the (111) slip plane in the [110] and [101] slip directions. Which slip system(s) will become active first?

Answer 1

Answer:

A single crystal of an FCC metal is oriented so that the [001] direction is parallel to an applied stress of 5000 psi. ... Here, are the components of direction of applied stress and are the components of slip plane.
