Abstract:The Escaig stress, i.e. the shear stress perpendicular to the Burgers vector, modulates the stacking fault area between two partials of a full dislocation, in turn, affects the mobility of the dislocation. In this paper, using the newly improved semi-discrete variational Peierls-Nabarro (SVPN) model we studied the variation of Peierls stress (τ p) of dislocations in face-centered-cubic crystals with respect to the Escaig stress. We found that τ p quasi-periodically oscillates and the oscillation gradually decr… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
