Question 1: Consider the following dislocation reaction:
b=
1 b2 + b3
1 1 1
=
With b1 = [1 0 1] , b2 [11 2=] and b3 2 1 1 . Assuming all dislocations are edge

dislocations, please determine if the above dislocation reaction is energetically possible.
Solutions:
For edge dislocation, the elastic deformation energy
[ ] [ ] [ ]
Therefore, the above dislocation reaction is energetically possible.
