The distributed dislocation method applied to the analysis of elastoplastic strain concentrations

摘要

Conventionally, the use of continuous distributions of dislocations to model plasticity has been confined to the analysis of crack tip plasticity using linear arrays of dislocations, within the framework of plane analysis. y expanding this technique into a distribution of dislocation over an area, a method is developed to model the plasticity at stress raising features such as notches or holes under plane strain conditions.
