Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The effect of plastic flow on the diffusion rate was also studied by considering the rate at which vacancies are produced by dislocation motion and the rate at which vacancies condense at inhomogeneities in the crystal. The resulting equations predict that for a vacancy mechanism the diffusion coefficient varies linearly with the strain rate. This conclusion is in agreement with experiment.
