This is an overview of micromechanical deformation mechanisms in hexagonal close-packed metals. We start with an in-depth discussion of single-crystal behaviour concerning crystallographic slip, plastic anisotropy and deformation twinning. We move on to discuss some complexities involved in polycrystalline deformation and modelling approaches, focusing on rate effects in titanium alloys that are thought to play a significant role in dwell fatigue. We finish our review with a brief commentary on current understanding and state-of-the-art techniques, and outline some key areas where further study is recommended.
