An observation on the experimental measurement of dislocation density
Amit Acharya and Robin J. Knops
(to appear in Journal of Elasticity)
The common practice of ignoring the elastic strain gradient in measurements of geometrically necessary dislocation (GND) density is critically examined. It is concluded that the practice may result in substantial errors. Our analysis points to the importance of spatial variations of the elastic strain field in relation to its magnitude in inferring estimates of dislocation density from measurements.
Journal of Applied Mechanics Award
The Journal of Applied Mechanics Award is provided by the Applied
Mechanics Division of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers to honor the
best paper which has been published in the Journal of Applied Mechanics during
the two calendar years immediately preceding the year of the award. The award
will be made annually to the corresponding author of the paper who received their
Ph.D. no more than 10 years prior to July 1 of the year of award. Corresponding
authors who have yet to receive a Ph.D. may also be considered. The award will
