Abstract
A two-phase nickel-cobalt superalloy deformed in tension at room tempe rature has been studied by high resolution electron microscopy (HREM). The alloy contains plate shaped precipitates which are sheared by the motion of dislocations during deformation. The matrix and precipitate s have different crystallographic structures; the deformation is not h omogeneous. Local deformations and rotations which appear near the she ar plane are analysed, and a microscopic description of the precipitat e shearing mechanism is proposed.
