Abstract

The geometrical theory of continuous distributions of dislocations traditionally neglects the dependence of a distribution of dislocations on the existence of point defects created by this distribution (e.g., due to intersections of dislocation lines). In this paper the influence of such point defects on metric properties of the continuized dislocated Bravais crystalline structure is assumed to be isotropic. The influence of the point defects on the distribution of dislocations is then modeled by treating dislocations as those located in a conformally flat space. This approach leads (among others) to new results concerning the geometry of glide surfaces.
