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
Non Local Model Vs Implicit Gradient Model
Hi All :
I was wondering why some people prefer to use Non Local Model while some others use Implicit Gradient Model (which can be derived from Non Local Model) .
When implicit Gradient Model is itself derived from Non Local Model ,and its FE implimentation just involves an additional average to be calculated and what is the need to introduce gradient terms ??
Thanks Alot
