Size effects under homogeneous deformation of single crystals: A discrete dislocation analysis
doi:10.1016/j.jmps.2007.03.009
Mechanism-based discrete dislocation
plasticity is used to investigate the effect of size on micron scale
crystal plasticity under conditions of macroscopically homogeneous
deformation. Long-range interactions among dislocations are naturally
incorporated through elasticity. Constitutive rules are used which
account for key short-range dislocation interactions. These include
