Which risk increases when mechanical stress exceeds a crystal lattice's proportional limit?

💡 Explanation

Accelerated creep can occur because exceeding the proportional limit initiates dislocation glide along crystal planes within the lattice. This deformation happens because of lattice defects, therefore leading higher deformation rates, rather than direct electronic properties alteration.
