Thermodynamic dislocation theory for non-uniform plastic deformations

preprint2020arXivOpen access

Abstract

The present paper extends the thermodynamic dislocation theory developed by Langer, Bouchbinder, and Lookmann to non-uniform plastic deformations. The free energy density as well as the positive definite dissipation function are proposed. The governing equations are derived from the variational equation. As illustration, the problem of plane strain constrained shear of single crystal deforming in single slip is solved within the proposed theory.
