Thermodynamic dislocation theory: Application to bcc-crystals
This paper presents the thermodynamic dislocation theory containing several modifications over its first version which was originally proposed by Langer, Bouchbinder, and Lookman (2010). Employing a small set of physics-based material parameters identified by the large scale least squares analysis, we show that the theory can fit the stress-strain curves of bcc crystals niobium, tantalum, tungsten, and vanadium over a wide range of temperatures and strain rates.
