Recent advances in analytical and computational modelling frameworks to describe the
mechanics of materials on scales ranging from the atomistic, through the microstructure or …

This book presents a broad collection of models and computational methods-from atomistic
to continuum-applied to crystal dislocations. Its purpose is to help students and researchers …

We develop a non-singular, self-consistent framework for computing the stress field and the
total elastic energy of a general dislocation microstructure. The expressions are self …

In the past twenty years, new experimental approaches, improved models and progress in
simulation techniques have brought new insights into longstanding issues concerning …

The first Phase Field model of evolution of a multi-dislocation system in elastically
anisotropic crystal under applied stress is formulated. The model is a modification and …

" This book provides both the theoretical foundation, as well as the authors' latest
contributions to micromechanics and its applications in nanomechanics, nanocomposites …

Interface-dominated nanolayered crystalline composites exhibit extraordinary strength and
hardness, far beyond those of their constituent materials. Modeling the deformation of such …

A thermodynamics-based variational method is developed to establish the equations of
motion for three-dimensional (3D) interacting dislocation loops. The approach is appropriate …

A framework for investigating size-dependent small-scale plasticity phenomena and related
material instabilities at various length scales ranging from the nano-microscale to the …

A three-dimensional discrete dislocation dynamics plasticity model is presented. The
approach allows realistic boundary conditions on the specimen, as both stress and …
