Abstract
Abstract The computer simulation is presented of the dynamic behaviour of linear arrays of edge dislocations emitted from a source under a constant rate τ of application of stress for the case when stress τ and velocity v are related by the expression v = Mτm . It is shown that the number N of dislocations emitted is controlled only by the dynamic factor: τ ≈ τ(m+1/m+2) t, where t is time. For large values of N, N is given by A0η m+1, where A0 is a material constant. The dynamic behaviour, such as the position of, the effective stress on, and the velocity of the lead dislocation is deduced. The possibility of the application of the results to the kinetic theory of fatigue crack propagation is discussed.
