Surface dislocation nucleation by wedge indenter contacts

Dislocation nucleation from a surface in contact with a rigid wedge indenter is studied in the framework of plane strain. First, the equivalent driving force on a singularity is derived in compact form. Using the result obtained, the driving force is then expressed in the form of complex integral fo...
