Screw Dislocations Emitted from a Blunt Crack in a Piezoelectric Material

Article Preview

Abstract:

The problem of a piezoelectric screw dislocation emitted from a blunt crack is dealt with in this paper. For an arbitrary distribution of the residual dislocation, the series-form solutions are derived. The results show that the force acting on the dislocation decreases with the value of the dielectric constant within the crack increasing. And the increase of the dielectric constant within the crack helps dislocation emission effectively.
