What is a dislocation?
• A dislocation is a discontinuity at which a material’s
crystal lattice shifts from an un-sheared to a sheared
state
• Dislocations enable a material to deform under shear
stress levels ~ 1/10,000 of its theoretical yield stress

Line
𝜀𝑡𝑜𝑡𝑎𝑙 = 𝜀𝑒𝑙𝑎𝑠𝑡𝑖𝑐 + 𝜀𝑖𝑛𝑒𝑙𝑎𝑠𝑡𝑖𝑐
•
Crystals deform by dislocations 1 atomic layer thin (𝜀𝑖𝑛𝑒𝑙𝑎𝑠𝑡𝑖𝑐 )
•
Energy stored in the material after deformation is localized around the dislocations
Characterizing Dislocations
• Burgers Vector
– The burgers vector is a property of a dislocation which
characterizes its orientation
– The burgers vector closes the circuit in loop in an
imperfect crystal
Characterizing Dislocations
• Burgers Vector
Dislocation Line
𝜇 = 𝑝𝑟𝑒𝑠𝑒𝑛𝑡 𝑝𝑜𝑠𝑖𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 − 𝑜𝑟𝑖𝑔𝑖𝑛𝑎𝑙 𝑝𝑜𝑠𝑖𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛
– Dislocations with the same signs tend to repel,
dislocations with the opposite signs tend to attract
( −𝜖 , −𝑏) ↔ ( −𝜖 , −𝑏) Same, Stress fields repel one another
( 𝜖 , 𝑏) ↔ ( 𝜖 , −𝑏) Opposite, Stress fields repel attract one another
A few Dislocation Types
Screw Dislocation
Edge Dislocation
b
Mixed
b
• Edge
– b is perpendicular to the
dislocation line
• Screw
– b is parallel to the
dislocation line
Stress Field of a Dislocation
• Screw Dislocation
• Edge Dislocation
• Packing of dislocations is limited by the range of the
stress field surrounding a dislocation (R1)

Slip Systems
• Materials tend to slip first
along the closest packed
plane
– Smallest burgers vector: b
– Largest spacing between
planes: do
• Alternatively one can find
the directions of slip from
the line tension

Applications
• FCC materials tend to yield more before failing than
BCC systems due to the large number of possible slip
directions
• FCC Aluminum Alloys are commonly used in nuts for
traditional rock climbing
