Derivation of the 1-D Groma-Balogh equations from the Peierls-Nabarro model

We consider a semi-linear integro-differential equation in dimension one associated to the half Laplacian whose solution represents the atom dislocation in a crystal. The equation comprises the evolutive version of the classical Peierls-Nabarro model. We show that for a large number of dislocations, the solution, properly rescaled, converges to the solution of a fully nonlinear integro-differential equation which is a model for the macroscopic crystal plasticity with density of dislocations. This leads to the formal derivation of the 1-D Groma-Balogh equations \cite{groma}, a popular model describing the evolution of the density of positive and negative oriented parallel straight dislocation lines. This paper completes the work of \cite{patsan}. The main novelty here is that we allow dislocations to have different orientation and so we have to deal with collisions of them.

From the Peierls-Nabarro model to the equation of motion of the dislocation continuum

We consider a semi-linear integro-differential equation in dimension one associated to the half Laplacian %This model describes the evolution of phase transitions associated to dislocations. whose solution represents the atom dislocation in a crystal. The equation comprises the evolutive version of the classical Peierls-Nabarro model. We show that for a large number of dislocations, the solution, properly rescaled, converges to the solution of a well known equation called by Head \cite{H} "the equation of motion of the dislocation continuum". The limit equation is a model for the macroscopic crystal plasticity with density of dislocations. In particular, we recover the so called Orowan's law which states that dislocations move at a velocity proportional to the effective stress.

Weak Solution of a Doubly Degenerate Parabolic Equation

This paper studies a fourth-order, nonlinear, doubly-degenerate parabolic equation derived from the thin film equation in spherical geometry. A regularization method is used to study the equation and several useful estimates are obtained. The main result of this paper is to prove the existence of a weak solution of the equation in a weighted Sobolev space.
