Tension–compression asymmetry of 〈c+a〉 slip in Ti–6Al

Microcantilevers with triangular cross-sections were machined using a focused ion beam from an α Ti–6Al alloy. Plasticity was predominantly in the lower part of the cantilever, allowing tension–compression asymmetry to be investigated by bending the cantilever up or down. Both ⟨a⟩ prismatic slip and...
