Renormalized Energy and Peach-Köhler Forces for Screw Dislocations with Antiplane Shear

preprint2014arXivOpen access

Abstract

We present a variational framework for studying screw dislocations subject to antiplane shear. Using a classical model developed by Cermelli and Gurtin, methods of Calculus of Variations are exploited to prove existence of solutions, and to derive a useful expression of the Peach-Köhler forces acting on a system of dislocation. This provides a setting for studying the dynamics of the dislocations, which is done in a forthcoming work.
