Compressive stress–strain curves for GaAs were simulated by using a proposed model for multi-slip which took account of perfect dislocations of 3 types. The results showed a predominant activation of dislocations by the primary slip system, and that a minor role was played by the secondary system. The yield drop which was observed at higher temperatures was not found here.
