Configurational Forces: Understanding Interaction Energy in Solid Mechanics

Description

This lecture delves into the concept of configurational forces in solid mechanics, exploring the interaction energy between defects like dislocations, solutes, and grain boundaries. The instructor explains how these forces arise from applied fields or interactions, leading to a deeper understanding of equilibrium and compatibility in material systems.
