“…In Table 1 the glide modes are ordered according to their importance, that is with increasing relative critical resolved shear stresses (see review for sulfide and oxide minerals by Siemes and Hennig Michaeli, 1985, for galena by Foitzik et al, 1991, for halite by Carter and Heard, 1970, and for fluorite by Pratt et al, 1966). In all these crystals one slip mode or a combination of several of them yield five independent slip systems which allow a general deformation without volume change (Mises, 1928;Kelly and Groves, 1970).…”
