Stress Fields Around DislocationsThe crystal lattice in the vicinity of a dislocation is distorted (or strained). The stresses that accompanied the strains can be calculated by elasticity theory beginning from a radial distance about 5b, or ~ 15 Åfrom the axis of the dislocation. The dislocation core is universally ignored in calculating the consequences of the stresses around dislocations. The stress field around a dislocation is responsible for severalimportant interactions with the environment. These include:1. An applied shear stress on the slip plane exerts a force on the dislocation line, which responds by moving or changing shape.2. Interaction of the stress fields of dislocations in close proximity to one another results in forces on both which are either repulsive or attractive.3. Edge dislocations attract and collect interstitial impurity atoms dispersed in the lattice. This phenomenon is especially important for carbon in iron alloys.
Screw DislocationAssume that the material is an elastic continuous and a perfect crystal of cylindrical shape of length L and radius r. Now, introduce a screw dislocation along AB. The Burger’s vector is parallel to the dislocation line ζ . Now let us, unwrap the surface of the cylinder into the plane of the paper

Roughly, due to r dependence
The total strain energy of a dislocation is the sum of the elastic strain energy plus the energy of the core of the dislocation (about 1/15th of the total energy – quantum mechanical calculations).
We have shown the distortion of a cylindrical element by a screwdislocation and the equivalent to a simple shear type of distortion. When translated to a coordinate system, the only shear possible are those with a z‐component.

The attractive force between the parallel screw dislocations separated by a distance d is:
As the partials separate, the energy increase by d*SFE, where SFE is the stacking fault energy and d is the fault separation distance. Thus, the “chemical” force resisting separation is SFE (dimensions of joules per square meter or force per unit length).

Multiplication of DislocationsTo account for large plastic strain that can be produced in crystals, it is necessary to have regenerative multiplication of dislocations. Of course, there are many variants that lead to many effects.
Two important mechanisms for this are:
• Frank‐Read sources and multiple cross glide
From Hall and Bacon 4th Ed
Fig. 3.10 Cross slip of single crystal of Fe‐3.25%Si
Marked pts could be from cross slip
Dislocations Generation: single‐ended Frank‐Read source
Single‐ended Frank‐Read source leads to regenerative multiplication.This mechanisms can be attained from a “superjog”, where an extended line is out of the slip plane and thus sessile.
For super‐jogs, see book and Gilman and Johnston, Solid State Physics 13, 147 (1962).
CEF
Sessile segment
• Segment BC is edge anchored at one end. (a)• Moves by rotating. (b)• Each revolution around B displaces the crystal above slip plane by b, so nrevolutions gives nb slip.• Spiraling around B increases line length.

Summary
• Dislocations (line defects) give rise to complicated interactions in a crystal.
• Dislocation multiplication is responsible for the very large increases in YS.
• Dislocation‐dislocation interactions, or dislocations interacting with other defects, lead to higher stresses required to move the dislocations further (work‐hardening). For example, dislocation pile‐up, jogs, trasnfer across grain boundaries, etc., all contribute to YS increases.
• Dislocations interacting with anything lead to other defects (point, planar, volumetric).
• Consequences are found in the allowed slip and strengthening of materials.
• Be familiar/conversant with how dislocations interact and the consequences.
Are these consequences able to be mathematically described?
