Abstract

Abstract In an inhomogeneous elastic medium, where the elastic constants Cijkl depend on position, a straight dislocation feels a self-force. If b (Cijkl , (x))b is the prelogarithmic energy factor for a dislocation in an infinite homogeneous medium with Cijkl = Cijkl (x) everywhere, the leading term in the self-force is F=b(ε)b In |∊b(ε)b/b b| with ∊ being a core radius.
