Abstract—

A pseudodifferential operator is constructed that describes the stress field in an anisotropic medium caused by a dislocation with a variable Burgers vector.

Under the assumption \({\mathbf{b}} \in {{H}_{{1/2}}}(\Pi ,{{R}^{3}})\), analytical expressions for the energy of circular dislocations with a variable Burgers vector in an elastic medium with general anisotropy are obtained for the first time. It was found that in an isotropic medium the energy of formation of an edge dislocation and a slip dislocation is determined only by the uniform norm of the Burgers vector.
