This page provides Matlab functions to compute the displacement gradient associated with discrete dislocation segments based on the non-singular formulation presented in Bertin and Cai, CMS, 2018.

Analytical non-singular displacement gradient formulation

It can be shown that the deformation gradient Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle G_{ml} = u_{m,l}} produced by a dislocation loop Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle C} with Burgers vector ${\vec {b}}$ can be written as (see Bertin and Cai, CMS, 2018):
