  2. Slip (materials science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slip_(materials_science)

    Unit cell of an fcc material. Lattice configuration of the close packed slip plane in an fcc material. The arrow represents the Burgers vector in this dislocation glide system. Slip in face centered cubic (fcc) crystals occurs along the close packed plane. Specifically, the slip plane is of type , and the direction is of type < 1 10>.

  3. Close-packing of equal spheres - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Close-packing_of_equal_spheres

    The same packing density can also be achieved by alternate stackings of the same close-packed planes of spheres, including structures that are aperiodic in the stacking direction. The Kepler conjecture states that this is the highest density that can be achieved by any arrangement of spheres, either regular or irregular.

  4. Stacking fault - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stacking_fault

    Comparison of fcc and hcp lattices, explaining the formation of stacking faults in close-packed crystals. In crystallography, a stacking fault is a planar defect that can occur in crystalline materials. [1] [2] Crystalline materials form repeating patterns of layers of atoms. Errors can occur in the sequence of these layers and are known as ...

  5. Dislocation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dislocation

    An edge dislocation is a defect where an extra half-plane of atoms is introduced midway through the crystal, distorting nearby planes of atoms. When enough force is applied from one side of the crystal structure, this extra plane passes through planes of atoms breaking and joining bonds with them until it reaches the grain boundary.

  6. Cubic crystal system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cubic_crystal_system

    Note: the term fcc is often used in synonym for the cubic close-packed or ccp structure occurring in metals. However, fcc stands for a face-centered cubic Bravais lattice, which is not necessarily close-packed when a motif is set onto the lattice points. E.g. the diamond and the zincblende lattices are fcc but not close-packed. Each is ...

    The other solicits input on a rule that would force pay-TV operators to notify the FCC via an online public portal if there’s a broadcast-programming blackout 24 hours or more.

  8. Interstitial site - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interstitial_site

    A close packed unit cell, both face-centered cubic and hexagonal close packed, can form two different shaped holes. Looking at the three green spheres in the hexagonal packing illustration at the top of the page, they form a triangle-shaped hole. If an atom is arranged on top of this triangular hole it forms a tetrahedral interstitial hole.

  9. Sphere packing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sphere_packing

    The sphere packing problem is the three-dimensional version of a class of ball-packing problems in arbitrary dimensions. In two dimensions, the equivalent problem is packing circles on a plane. In one dimension it is packing line segments into a linear universe. [10]
