  • metalli omaduste muutumine (tugevuse ja kõvaduse suurenemine ning plastsuse ja sitkuse vähenemine) külma plastse deformeerimise protsessi/operatsiooni tulemusena
    Good to know
    • See kõvenemine (tugevnemine) toimub tänu dislokatsioonide tekkele ja dislokatsioonide liikumisele materjali kristallstruktuuris. Kalestunud struktuuri saab kõrvaldada rekristalliseeriva lõõmutamise abil. (vt dislokatsioon, rekristalliseeriv lõõmutus)
  • strengthening (increase in strength and hardness, ie resistance to plastic deformation) produced by plastic deformation
    Good to know
    • This strengthening occurs because of dislocation movements and dislocation generation within the crystal structure of the material. Work-hardened structure can be removed by recrystallization heat treatment. (see: dislocation, recrystallization annealing/recrystallizing)
