Riemann-Cartan Geometry of nonlinear dislocation mechanics
We present a geometric theory of nonlinear solids with distributed dislocations. In this theory the material manifold – where the body is stress free – is a Weitzenbock manifold, i.e. a manifold with a flat affine connection with torsion but vanishing non-metricity. Torsion of the material manifold...
