CONT

On peut interpréter [la symétrie hélicoïdale] comme la combinaison d'une translation et d'une rotation autour d'un axe parallèle à cette translation; on pourrait en déduire que le défaut résultant est la combinaison d'une dislocation et d'une désinclinaison. En fait, il s'agit d'un défaut structural d'un tout autre type, appelé une déspiralisation.
