Geometry of dislocations in icosahedral quasicrystals

Quasicrystals are complex metallic alloys that are ductile at high temperatures close to their melting point. It has been early recognized that their plasticity is due to a flux of moving linear defects in all respects similar to dislocations in ordinary crystals. The present paper is an attempt to...
