Description
New materials addressed for the first time include the chapters on minerals by Barber et al and the chapter on dislocations in colloidal
crystals by Schall and Spaepen. Moriarty et al extend the first principles calculations of kink configurations in bcc metals to high
pressures, including the use of flexible boundary conditions to model dilatational effects. Rabier et al clarify the issue of glide-shuffle
slip systems in diamond cubic and related III-V compounds. Metadislocations, discussed by Feuerbacher and Heggen, represent a new type
of defect in multicomponent metal compounds and alloys.
