Continuity in the Plastic Strain Rate and its Influence on Texture Evolution
Classical plasticity models evolve state variables in a spatially independent manner through (local) ordinary differen-
tial equations, such as in the update of the rotation field in crystal plasticity. A continuity condition is derived for the
lattice rotation field from a conservation law for Burgers vector content—a consequence of an averaged field theory
of dislocation mechanics. This results in a nonlocal evolution equation for the lattice rotation field. The continuity
relation between plastic strain tensor and dislocation density?
What's a general relation between dislocation density (scalar) and plastic strains (tensor) in 3d? any references? thanks.
