Abstract
The strain energy of an edge dislocation in an external static magnetic field is determined by the theory of elasticity and electrodynamics according to the Volterra dislocation model for continuous media. The results show that the strain energy of the edge dislocation in paramagnetic states is increased due to static magnetic field and the increase in the energy of the dislocation is capable of influencing the dislocation depinning which leads to the change of plasticity. This gives an explanation on plasticity induced by magnetic field.
