  2. Crystal twinning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystal_twinning

    Deformation twinning is a response to shear stress. The crystal structure is displaced along successive planes of the crystal, a process also called glide. The twinning is always reflection twinning and the glide plane is also the mirror plane. Deformation twinning can be observed in a calcite cleavage fragment by applying gentle pressure with ...

  3. Stacking-fault energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stacking-fault_energy

    Twinning is less common but readily occurs under some circumstances. Twinning occurs when there are not enough slip systems to accommodate deformation and/or when the material has a very low SFE. Twins are abundant in many low SFE metals like copper alloys, but are rarely seen in high SFE metals like aluminum.

  4. Cell damage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_damage

    Cell damage (also known as cell injury) is a variety of changes of stress that a cell suffers due to external as well as internal environmental changes. Amongst other causes, this can be due to physical, chemical, infectious, biological, nutritional or immunological factors. Cell damage can be reversible or irreversible.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deformity

    Reconstructive surgery following a severe injury, e.g. burn injury; Deformity can occur in all organisms: Frogs can be mutated due to Ribeiroia infection. Plants can undergo irreversible cell deformation [1] Insects, such as honeybees, can be affected by deformed wing virus; Fish can be found with scoliosis due to environmental factors [2]

  6. Plasticity (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plasticity_(physics)

    Twinning is the plastic deformation which takes place along two planes due to a set of forces applied to a given metal piece. Most metals show more plasticity when hot than when cold. Lead shows sufficient plasticity at room temperature, while cast iron does not possess sufficient plasticity for any forging operation even when hot.

  9. Fiveling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiveling

    In mineralogy and the crystal twinning literature they are referred to as a type of cyclic twin where a number of identical single crystal units are arranged in a ring-like pattern where they all join at a common point or line. [11] The name fiveling comes from them having five members (single crystals). [12]
