Abstract
IN recently published work1, I have shown that the cold-working of most metals produces, first, a stage of crystal disruption which is accompanied by growth of lattice distortion, and then, after the lattice distortion limit is reached, the second stage in which the crystallites take up a preferred orientation. Normally, therefore, a metal which possesses this fibre structure also exhibits lattice distortion.
