Abstract

In this paper, we propose a model for dislocation-void interaction in Iron that is amenable to dislocation dynamics simulations. Voids are treated as shearable particles whose shear resistance and thermal activation parameters are obtained from atomistic calculations. The modeling is first validated by direct comparison with molecular dynamics calculations. A good agreement is found especially at 0K and high temperature. The interaction with a random distribution of voids is then investigated.
