Equation of motion for dislocations with inertial effects

Materials Science 2008-04-17 v1

Abstract

An approximate equation of motion is proposed for screw and edge dislocations, which accounts for retardation and for relativistic effects in the subsonic range. Good quantitative agreement is found, in accelerated or in decelerated regimes, with numerical results of a more fundamental nature.
