Computing dislocation stress fields in anisotropic elastic media using fast multipole expansions
The calculation of stress fields due to dislocations and hence the forces they exert on each other is the most time consuming step in dislocation dynamics (DD) simulations. The fast multipole method (FMM) can reduce the computational cost at each simulation step from O(N 2)for an ensemble of O(N) di...
