Forces on dislocations lines in three dimensions Ginster, Janus

Description

In this talk we discuss the equilibrium problem for a curved dislocation line in a three-dimensional domain. As the core radius tends to zero, we derive an asymptotic expression to characterize the induced elastic energy. We then obtain the force on the dislocation line as the variation of this expression and identify the highest order terms explicitly. As a main ingredient, we present an explicit asymptotic formula for the induced elastic strain which depends on the curvature of the dislocation line and thus highlights the difference with existing work on straight dislocation lines.
