A dislocation of a lead, destroying continuity.

Is the internal leakage within a rotary compressor. It represents gas at least partially compressed but not delivered. It is experimentally determined and expressed in CFM to be deducted from the displacement to obtain capacity. ( 030)

A term commonly used to express leakage in positive displacement flowmeters.

move out of position; "dislocate joints"; "the artificial hip joint luxated and had to be put back surgically"

Plastic deformation as the result of dislocation motion; also, the shear displacement of two adjacent planes of atoms.

A displacement of the atoms in single crystal silicon caused by a stress relief mechanism.

Can occur in both PW and EPW. A process of plastic deformation in which one part of the crystal undergoes a shear displacement relative to another in a fashion that preserves the crystallinity of the material. The direction is on a specific crystallographic plan.

Plastic deformation by the irreversible shear displacement (translation) of one part of a crystal relative to another in a definite crystallographic direction and usually on a specific crystallographic plane. Sometimes called glide.

The relative displacement of formerly adjacent points on opposite sides of a fault, measured on the fault surface.

a process of plastic deformation in which one part of a crystal undergoes a shear displacement relative to another in a fashion which preserves the crystallinity of the silicon. After preferential etching, slip is evidenced by a pattern of one or more parallel straight lines of 10 or more dislocation etch pits per millimeter which do not necessarily toch each other. On 111 surfaces, groups of lines are inclined at 60º to each other; on 100 surfaces, they are inclined at 90º to each other.

Slip is the process by which plastic deformation is produced by a dislocation motion. By an external force, parts of the crystal lattice glide along each other, resulting in a changed geometry of the material. Depending on the type of lattice, different slip systems are present in the material.
