Abstract

We present a new method to calculate the response of dislocations to applied stress. This new method, called the dislocation treadmill, can be used to study the effect of vacancies, interstitials, stresses, strain rate, temperature etc., on the steady state velocity of the dislocation. We demonstrate the use of the method by calculating the response of a dislocation to a constant applied shear stress.
