Abstract
<p>In this paper we show that a strain-gradient plasticity model arises as the Gamma-limit of a nonlinear semi-discrete dislocation energy. We restrict our analysis to the case of plane elasticity, so that edge dislocations can be modelled as point singularities of the strain field.</p> <p>A key ingredient in the derivation is the extension of the rigidity estimate proved by Friesecke, James and Mueller to the case of fields with nonzero curl.</p>
