Work in Progress

Until this page is finished please refer to _____. Note: There are some errors associated with the junction length calculation in the code provided. These have been addressed and will be included in the forthcoming guide on this page.

This tutorial will:

  • Introduce the formation of Lomer-Cottrell junctions in FCC crystals
  • Determine the dependence of junction length and strength on the initial orientation of the intersection dislocations
  • Illustrate the mobility of nodes at the intersection of glide planes in DDLAB and ParaDis
  • Discuss any limitations associated with DDLAB and/or ParaDis
