In crystals you are looking for lattice defects (dislocations, for instance), whereas in amorphous materials such as glasses, they are called shear transformation zones (STZs). Strictly speaking, both dislocations and STZs are means of plasticity rather than cracking, but cracking usually happens where plasticity is prominent. | |
