Diffraction patterns from & SIM,100 individual grains of a solutionized and quenched metastable beta-Ti alloy were obtained by high energy synchrotron diffraction during in-situ tensile deformation experiments. The diffraction patterns of select grains were analyzed per an established single-crystal line profile analysis technique to assess the dislocation density evolution on individual slip systems. Further, a new technique to estimate the geometrically necessary dislocation (GND) density from rocking curves is introduced. The results provide a powerful complement to previously published comparisons between measured and crystal plasticity simulated internal elastic strains (and stresses). In particular, they reveal there is no preference for 1/2 111 Burgers vector dislocations to reside on a particular glide plane, since they have similar densities on {1101 and {1121 planes. In addition, an explanation for the observation of strain softening in some of the grains is hypothesized as form of 'plastic buckling'. A select number of strain softening grains exhibit higher lattice curvature (GND density) than other grains, indicating that the grains have 'broken up' into smaller domains which are deforming in distinct ways from one another, and more easily than they would have together. On the other hand, no significant differences in total dislocation density increment were observed, and examination of diffraction data from a larger subset of grains shows no strong correlations between total or GND densities with hardening/softening behavior. The results of this study reveal that GND density does not correlate with higher grain-level stress or more rapid strain hardening response.
