Abstract
Standard text-book dislocation theory for the elastic fields of a dislocation is provided in an infinite medium. For problems involving free surfaces, or image stresses, the solution for such elastic fields is more complex. The current article extends the state of knowledge for problems with free surfaces to address the stress field of a screw dislocation in a plate (two planar free surfaces) containing a hole/void. Such surfaces interact and thus affect the stress field of a dislocation in deviation of the infinite medium solution. The numerical solutions provided herein, based on reflective image stresses and the collocation-point method, have been verified to the extent available and such solutions allow for further applied problems. One main finding of the paper is that the equilibrium location of a screw dislocation is always closer to the hole/void surface than the planar free surface.
