Summary
Like the previous question about “FCC versus BCC” posed in Chapter 1, here is another interesting question of a very fundamental kind that few might be able to answer clearly and appropriately: What is (are) the substantial distinction(s) between single crystals and polycrystals in terms of plasticity? Of course the secondary and tertiary factors such as the effect of “textures” should be excluded. This question is extensively discussed in this section.
