On the interaction between an edge dislocation and two circular inclusions in an infinite medium (continued report) (Q1819973): Difference between revisions

To continue the work presented in the previous paper [ibid. 24, 1771-1786 (1986; Zbl 0602.73117)] the interaction between two circular inclusions and an edge dislocation, which are arranged in the order of inclusion- edge dislocation-inclusion and are placed on the axis of symmetry, is investigated within the frame-work of the linear theory of elasticity. Results obtained by numerical calculation indicate that, for the region near interface, the interactions are greatly affected by the geometrical relations and the combinations of elastic constants. It is also interesting to note that the dislocation has a stable equilibrium position or an unstable equilibrium position at some intermediate distance by the combinations of elastic constants.
