Abstract
Garber’s experiments showed that the length of a mechanical twin as a function of load shows very little hysteresis and very little relation to the loading rate or to the temperature, which gave one reason to hope that twinning can be treated as a static problem corresponding to minimum potential energy. However, the problem cannot be solved generally within the framework of the macroscopic theory of elasticity; further simplifications are needed.
