A technique is given for finding partial DSC vectors appropriate to crystals with more than one atom per lattice site. The DSC lattice is made up of vectors that represent displacements of one crystal with respect to the other that leave the boundary structure shifted, but not complete. A new, rapid method for finding the step vectors associated with perfect DSC dislocations is described. Partial DSC vectors and step vectors for perfect DSC dislocations in hexagonal close-packed crystals are determined. The availability of reactions between lattice partial dislocations and grain boundaries in hexagonal close-packed crystals is also assessed.
