• The misorientation at the boundary is related to spacing between dislocations, D, by the following relation:

where b is the Burgers vector.

• As the misorientation q increases, the spacing between dislocations is reduced, until, at large angles, the description of the boundary in terms of simple dislocation arrangements does not make sense.

(for q very small) (16-1)
