Abstract
A computer simulation model is proposed to investigate the plastic beh aviour of single crystals oriented for single slip. The dislocation sy stem consists of parallel edge dislocations. The velocity of a disloca tion is proportional to the local shear stress and the generation of n ew dislocation dipoles is allowed. It is shown by computations on an A MT DAP that by applying a constant shear rate the stress-strain relati onship corresponds to stage I of single-crystal plastic deformation, a nd a long-range undulation appears in the stress field of the dislocat ion system.
