Strain hardening effect in metals subjected to cold working is due to the _______________ mechanism?

Correct answer: D. Dislocation

  • A. Slip
  • B. Fracture
  • C. Winning
  • D. Dislocation

Explanation

Cold working increases strength because dislocations multiply and impede one another’s movement, making further plastic deformation harder. Slip is the deformation mechanism, but dislocation interactions cause the hardening.
