Abstract Transition bands are regions of high lattice distortion which result from inhomogeneous deformation in metals. During annealing of cold-worked metals, nucleation of recrystallization is frequently observed to occur within these bands. An analysis has been made of some of the conditions under which transition bands may develop during deformation, and of the factors which influence their microstructure. A model is proposed for the mechanism by which nucleation of recrystallization occurs in transition bands during annealing. The dependence of these processes on crystallographic orientation is then discussed and related to the formation of recrystallization textures in b.c.c. metals.
