A mathematical methodology for analysing pile-ups of large numbers of dislocations is described. As an example, the pile-up of n identical screw or edge dislocations in a single slip plane under the action of an external force in the direction of a locked dislocation in that plane is considered. As n→∞ there is a well-known formula for the number density of the dislocations, but this density is singular...
