Author:Nabarro, FRNDate:30 Aug 1997The origin of the Peierls model and its relation to that of Frenkel and Kontorova are described. Within this model there are three essentially different formulae for the stress required to move a dislocation rigidly through a perfect lattice, ...Read more
Author:Nabarro, FRNDate:Aug 2000If a stress sigma is applied to a polycrystal of grain size L, the mode of creep deformation depends on the answers to the following questions: (i) Does sigma exceed the Peierls stress sigma (p); (ii) Does L exceed the dislocation spacing in ...Read more
