The Peach-Koehler expression for the stress generated by a single (non-planar) curvilinear dislocation is evaluated to calculate the dislocation self stress. This is combined with a law of motion to give the self-induced motion of a general dislocation curve. A stability analysis of a rectilinear, uniformly translating dislocation is then performed. The dislocation is found to be susceptible to...

Dislocation model of strain anisotropy is presented. The dislocation theorem of strain broadening is suggested which means that strain broadening can only be caused by dislocation-type lattice defects. Based on this theorem strain anisotropy is modeled and accounted for by assuming that strain broadening is caused by dislocations or dislocation-type lattice defects. The effect of strain anisotr...

Fermi-level pinning by misfit dislocations at GaAs interfaces has been investigated. n -GaInAs was used to control the misfit dislocation density by varying of composition and epilayer thickness. interfaces with zero or low dislocation densities are Ohmic to current flow, and become rectifying with increasing dislocation density. The "Schottky barrier height" increases with dislocation density ...

Recurrent dislocation of the patella probably has several causes. In many patients abnormal laxity of the knee is present and this may predispose to dislocation (Dc Palma 1954). A family has come to our notice in which three members suffered recurrent dislocation of the patella and a fourth had probably sustained a single dislocation. All the former had abnormally lax knees and most other joint...

Traumatic anterior hip dislocation is a rare condition compared to posterior dislocation and recurrent anterior hip dislocation is encountered even less. Myasthenia gravis is a chronic autoimmune neuromuscular disease characterized by various degrees of muscle weakness. Closed reduction is the first choice of treatment for traumatic, non-recurring hip dislocation. We report a 59-year-old female...

introduction fracture - dislocations of the talus are typically due to high energy injuries. displaced fracture - dislocations of the talus have poor outcomes in general and complications are common. although talar fracture is common and comprises the second most common tarsal fracture, bilateral fracture - dislocations of the talus are rare. not many reports regarding the subject can be found ...

conclusions although spinopelvic fracture dislocation injuries are severe high-energy entities, in cases with traumatic spondylolytic spondylolisthesis due to widening of the vertebral canal, neurologic deficit may not be seen at all. case presentation we described a 16-year-old girl with extremely severe axial trauma to the lumbosacral spine who presented with fracture dislocation of the lumbo...

To implement adaptive replication strategies for Web documents, we have developed a wide area resource management system. This system allows servers to be managed on a local and global level. On a local level the system manages information about the resources and services provided by the servers, while on a global level the system allows servers to be searched for, added to, and removed from th...

A n 83-year-old man with Type 2 diabetes mellitus, systemic hypertension, atrial fibrillation, and successfully treated prostate carcinoma (6 years prior to presentation) complained of progressive painful loss of vision in his left eye for 2 weeks. Examination revealed visual acuity of 20/20 in the right eye and no light perception in the left eye. The left pupil was amaurotic, and there was mi...

conclusions a neglected hip dislocation with acetabular fracture can be managed satisfactorily with uncemented thr. bone reconstruction using chunk grafts and use of cementless components ensures long-term survival and also preserves adequate bone stock for revision, especially in young patients. introduction posterior hip dislocation of the hip with acetabular fracture is a challenging problem...
