摘要
Motions of a straight edge dislocation and a kinked screw dislocation in BCC Mo. described by the Finnis-Sinclair potential, are Studied in periodic simulation cells subjected to an applied shear stress. Procedures for setting tip the initial atomic configurations in each case are described. and estimate is made of the local driving force due to the image interactions. Preliminary results show that at low temperature the edge dislocation moves primarily through kink nucleation. whereas the mobility of the screw dislocation is strongly facilitated by the presence of a kink.
