Stress Field of a Rectangular Dislocation Loop

Stress Field of a Rectangular Dislocation Loop Luo Li , Tariq Khriashi Abstract The stress field of a rectangular dislocation loop in an isotropic solid in an infinite medium is obtained here for a Volterra-type dislocation. Explicitly, the stress field of the dislocation loop is developed by integrating the Peach-Koehler equation over a finite rectangular dislocation loop. In this paper, numerical verification of the stress field is demonstrated (for the Equilibrium Equations and Strain Compatibility Equations).
