Answer:
This process involves the motion of dislocations and is termed slip (or glide in some textbooks)
Step-by-step explanation:
Plastic deformation of metals (and other crystalline materials) usually occurs by slip, which is the sliding of planes of atoms over one another by dislocation movements.
On a microscopic scale, stress causes planes of crystalline objects to leave their original position and slide over other planes into new positions, these microscopic movements manifest as a slip on a macroscopic scale. And the planes do not return back to their original position after the removal of the dislocation-causing stress.
