Body-centered cubic metals and alloys irradiated by energetic particles form highly mobile prismatic dislocation loops with a/2 {111} -type Burgers vectors. We show how to simulate thermal diffusion of prismatic loops using a discrete dislocation dynamics approach that explicitly includes the stochastic forces associated with ambient thermal fluctu…

Conventional linear elasticity theory predicts the strain fields of a dislocation core to diverge, whereas it is known from atomistic simulations that strains at dislocation cores remain finite. We present an analytical solution to a generalised, variational Peierls-Nabarro model of edge dislocation displacement fields that features a finite core w…
