On the basis of the classical dislocation theory, the Solid Solution Hardening (SSH) is commonly ascribed to the pinning of the edge dislocations. At the atomic level, the theoretical study of the dislocation cores contrasts with such a…
The stress fields of dislocations predicted by classical elasticity are known to be unrealistically large approaching the dislocation core, due to the singular nature of the theory. While in many cases this is remedied with the…
We discuss the stick-slip motion of an elastic block sliding along a rigid substrate. We argue that for a given external shear stress this system shows a discontinuous nonequilibrium transition from a uniform stick state to uniform sliding…
