THE STRESS FIELD OF A DISLOCATION LOOP IN AN ANISOTROPIC SOLID

摘要

A new derivation for the stress field produced by an arbitrary non-planar dislocation loop in an anisotropic solid is present. It is found that the result differs from a formula reported previously by Willis [(1970) Stress fields produced by dislocations in anisotropic media. Phil. Mag, 21, 931-949], and it is shown that the difference is due to a term missed in a particular limiting process used to obtain the formula. [References: 15]
