A Gauge Theory of Relaxing Elastic Materials Containing Dislocations
Abstract
We attempt to develop a gauge theory for elastic materials that exhibit the relaxation phenomenon in the sense that the strain induced by applied loads is less than that given by the classical theory. It is accomplished by generalizing the Lagrangian to include linear terms associated with dislocation currents and relaxing the minimal coupling part of the standard Yang-Mills gauge theory. © 1994.
