Dislocation patterning and self-organization during plastic deformation are associated with work hardening, but the exact mechanisms remain elusive. This is partly because studies of the structure and local strain during the initial stages…

We study the kinetics of the redistribution of impurity atoms in the elastic fields of dislocations by computer simulation methods. A work consists of several stages. The first is the simulation of a dislocation core structure with a…
