When the dislocation mobility in a solid is restricted by the solute atoms, the resultant
strengthening is called solid-solution-hardening.
(a) Increase in strength, , of steel as a function of content of solute. The solid lines represent substitutional solute additions, while the
dashed line represents interstitial solute additions. (After F. B. Pickering and T. Gladman, ISI Special Report 81,
Iron and Steel Inst., (London: 1963), p. 10). (b) Increase in strength of sapphire (monocrystalline alumina) with small additions of chromium

Dispersion
Dislocation-Precipitate/Dispersion Interaction
Two of the important models can be explained the strengthening due to precipitates:
a. Dislocations cutting through the particles in the slip plane
b. Dislocations circumnavigating around the particles in the slip plane
