Which consequence results when stress surpasses a crystal's yield strength?

💡 Explanation

Permanent plastic deformation is observed because dislocation slip within the crystal structure occurs above the yield strength limits the crystal's structure. Therefore, yielding causes dislocations; rather than perfect elasticity that would return the shape, as material strength is exceeded.
