General teleparallel geometric theory of defects
Muzaffer Adak, Ertan Kok, Mehmet Orhan
We revisit the geometric theory of defects. In the differential-geometric models of defects that have been adopted since the 1950s, dislocations have been associated with torsion,…

Reformulation of continuum defects in terms of the general teleparallel geometry in the language of exterior algebra
Muzaffer Adak, Tekin Dereli, Ertan Kok +1
We discuss the geometric formulation of continuum defects consisting of dislocations and disclinations. After reviewing the metric affine geometry and the present geometric formula…
