Abstract
The elastic interaction between two parallel dislocations which can glide in non-parallel slip planes is studied under the simplifying assumption that the dislocation glide velocity is proportional to stress. The motion of the two dislocations is represented by a motion of one reference point in a configuration plane. It is concluded that the contribution of the long-range elastic interaction between individual dislocations from different slip systems to work hardening is negligible, compared to the contribution from the formed attractive junctions. Especially, two parallel edge dislocations with mutually perpendicular Burgers vectors can co-exist in minimum energy positions, however, they can be separated by an arbitrarily small external stress.
