| contents | The dynamics of dislocations can be formulated in terms of the evolution of continuous variables representing dislocation densities ('continuum dislocation dynamics'). We show for various variants of this approach that the resulting models can be envisaged in terms of the evolution of order-parameter like variables that strives to minimize a free energy functional which incorporates interface energy-like terms, i.e., as a phase field theory. We show that dislocation density variables obey non-standard conservation laws. These lead, in conjunction with the externally supplied work, to evolution equations that go beyond the classical framework of Ginzburg-Landau vs Cahn-Hilliard equations. The approach is applied to the evolution of dislocation patterns in materials with B1(NaCl) lattice structure. |
