Plastic deformation of austenitic stainless steels is usually accomplished by combination of slip and twinning. The relative intensity of the deformation mechanisms depends on many factors including temperature of deformation, strain rate and deformation mode as well as crystallographic orientation. The objective of the investigation is to find microstructural changes during cross rolling of an austenitic single crystal with the initial (110)[001] crystallographic orientation and to compare it with microstructure in the uni-directionally rolled (110)[{bar 1}10] single crystal. This should constitute a contribution to better understanding of microstructure development during plastic deformation.
