Abstract

Material defects resulting from manufacturing and processing can significantly affect material properties. Voids and dislocations are material defects considered in this study, in which a numerical solution of the 3D stress field of a dislocation line (infinite or finite) outside a cylindrical void (either parallel to the cylinder axis or not) is developed using the collocation point method. The collocation point method is utilized to solve ordinary differential equations, partial differential equations, differential-algebraic equations, and integral equations by enforcing the solution at a set of spatial collocation points. Analytical solutions for such three-dimensional (3D) problems, e.g., a dislocation line or segment near an internal void of any shape, were not found. Therefore, a numerical solution for this problem has been constructed in this paper. The numerical solution developed is verified using an existing two-dimensional analytical solution. The numerical results and the 2D analytical solution are in perfect agreement as long as the cylindrical void is sufficiently long and the Saint-Venant’s principle is followed.
