Analysis of extended dislocation faults
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 31 January 2011
Abstract
The relative stability of standard extended dislocation dipoles and some new stable defects with lozenge-shaped cross sections have been numerically estimated. An earlier study of these defects in an isotropic fee structure has been extended to the anisotropic case to assess the effect of anisotropy on the calculations. The study is further extended to the case of the L12 crystal structure of the ordered alloy Ni3Al, where the Burgers vectors are large. Results indicate that the introduction of anisotropy has a small effect in determining the relative stability of extended dislocation faults. The results also show that the large values of the Burgers vectors stabilize the arrays in Ni3Al and that the most stable defect favored is the screw lozenge array LD.
