Monneau %J Mathematics %D 2009 %I arXiv %R 10.1007/s00161-009-0103-7 %X In this paper we study the connection between four models describing dislocation dynamics: a generalized 2D Frenkel-Kontorova model at the atomic level, the Peierls-Nabarro model, the discrete dislocation dynamics and a macroscopic model with dislocation densities. We show how each model can be deduced from the previous one at a smaller scale. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/0903.1438v1
