“…and α IIm is the mean deection angle of the crack front from the plane of the maximum shear stress [7]. For the investigated single-phase materials, the angle α IIm increased with decreasing number of available easy slip systems in the crystal lattice and n α,bcc ≈ 0.9, n α,hcp ≈ 0.6, and n α,fcc ≈ 0.4 for bcc, hcp, and fcc metals, respectively.…”
