Method for computing the strain distribution near a wedge-like twin by using macroscopic dislocation model approaches

We develop a method for calculating the strain distribution near a wedge-like twin with various shapes of the boundaries. The method is based on the use of such a scale level at which one can assume that the distance between the twinning dislocations is infinitely small. We show that the twin boundary bending results in the loss of symmetry in the strain distribution of a wedge-like twin.
