This model is a semi-linear integro-differential equation associated to the half Laplacian. This model describes the evolution of phase transitions associated to dislocations. At large scale with well separated dislocations, we show that the dislocations move at a velocity proportional to the effective stress. This implies Orowan's law which claims that the plastic strain velocity is proportional to the product of the density of dislocations by the effective stress.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2012-07-18T16:50:56.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "derivation", "time dependent peierls-nabarro model", "plastic strain velocity", "semi-linear integro-differential equation", "effective stress" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 23, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2012arXiv1207.4412M" } } }
