Disclinations, dislocations and continuous defects: a reappraisal
Maurice Kleman, Jacques Friedel
Disclinations, first observed in mesomorphic phases, are relevant to a number of ill-ordered condensed matter media, with continuous symmetries or frustrated order. They also appea…

Imperfections in focal conic domains: the role of dislocations
M. Kleman, C. Meyer, Yu. A. Nastishin
It is usual to think of Focal Conic Domains (FCD) as perfect geometric constructions in which the layers are folded into Dupin cyclides, about an ellipse and a hyperbola that are c…

Phasons and the Plastic Deformation of Quasicrystals
Maurice Kleman
The plastic deformation of a quasicrystal (QC) is ruled by singularities of its 'phonon' strain field and of its 'phason' strain field. In the framework of the topological theory o…
