The breakdown of the Schmid law in bcc metals has been known for a long time. The asymmetry of shearing in the slip direction <111> in the positive and negative sense, respectively, commonly identified with the twinning-antitwinning…

Owing to their non-planar cores 1/2<111> screw dislocations govern the plastic deformation of BCC metals. Atomistic studies of the glide of these dislocations at 0 K have been performed using Bond Order Potentials for molybdenum and…

Based on the atomistic studies presented in Part I we develop analytical yield criteria for single crystals that capture the effect of shear stresses other than the Schmid stress (non-glide stresses) on the shear stress needed for…

We propose a mesoscopic model that explains the factor of two to three discrepancy between experimentally measured yield stresses of BCC metals at low temperatures and typical Peierls stresses determined by atomistic simulations of isolated…

We show here how density functional theory calculations can be used to predict the temperatureand orientation-dependence of the yield stress of body-centered cubic (BCC) metals in the thermallyactivated regime where plasticity is governed…

The Peierls stress of the a/2<110> screw dislocation belonging to the shuffle set is calculated for silicon using density functional theory. We have checked the effect of boundary conditions by using two models, the supercell method where…

The influence of magnetism on the properties of screw dislocations in body-centered cubic chromium is investigated by means of ab initio calculations. Screw dislocations having Burgers vectors 1/2 111 and 100 are considered, following…

Plastic flow in body-centered cubic (BCC) metals and dilute/concentrated alloys is governed by the motion of <111> screw dislocations, whose glide is often impeded by cross-kinks (jogs). While existing strengthening models typically treat…

In this paper we develop a link between the atomic-level modeling of the glide of 1/2<111> screw dislocations at 0 K and the thermally activated motion of these dislocations via nucleation of pairs of kinks. For this purpose, we introduce…

The thermodynamic description of dislocation glide in crystals depends crucially on the shape of the Peierls barrier that the dislocation has to overcome when moving in the lattice. While the height of this barrier can be obtained…

Plasticity in zirconium is controlled by 1/3<1-210> screw dislocations gliding in the prism planes of the hexagonal close-packed structure. This prismatic and not basal glide is observed for a given set of transition metals like zirconium…

Movement of edge (line) dislocations in FCC steel 310S is shown to depend on the size on nanoscale structures, based on modeling withing molecular dynamics (MD). The effect is attributed to time (and size) dependencies of pressure…

It was recently shown that to predict reliable Peierls stresses from atomistic simulations, one has to correct the Peierls barrier by the zero-point energy difference between the initial and activated states of the dislocation. The…

We demonstrate that the straightforward application of the Nudged Elastic Band (NEB) method does not determine the correct Peierls barrier of 1/2<111> screw dislocations in BCC metals. Although this method guarantees that the states…

We develop a model for the gliding of dislocations and plasticity in solid He-4. This model takes into account the Peierls barrier, multiplication and interaction of dislocations, as well as classical thermally and mechanically activated…

A novel model based on the Peierls framework of dislocations is developed. The new theory can deal with a dislocation spreading at more than one slip planes. As an example, we study dislocation cross-slip and constriction process of two fcc…

We show the correspondence between a screw dislocation in gradient elasticity and a regularized vortex. The effective Burgers vector, nonsingular distortion and stress fields of a screw dislocation and the effective circulation, smoothed…

In body-centred-cubic (bcc) metals migrating 1/2<111> screw dislocations experience a periodic energy landscape with a triangular symmetry. Atomistic simulations, such as those performed using the nudged-elastic-band (NEB) method, generally…

We study strain-controlled plastic deformation of crystalline solids via two-dimensional discrete dislocation dynamics simulations. To this end, we characterize the average stress-strain curves as well as the statistical properties of…

The validity of the structure-property relationships governing the deformation behavior of bcc metals was brought into question with recent {\it ab initio} density functional studies of isolated screw dislocations in Mo and Ta. These…
