Formation of prismatic dislocation loops during unloading in nanoindentation
The formation of prismatic dislocation loops during nanoindentation of bcc iron is simulated with discrete dislocation plasticity. Interestingly, it is not the loading phase, but the unloading phase of the test which is found to be crucial for prismatic loop formation when indenting a (001) crystal...
