Abstract
The complete mathematical solution of dislocation damping for the equally spaced multi-dragging-point-defect case is investigated by the Laplace-transformation method combined with a variational procedure. It is shown that the dragging leads to an expression which is identical to the exact solution of the Koehler-Granato-Lücke (KGL) model with a modified damping constant. The apparent dissimilarity between the point-defect dragging model of Simpson and Sosin (SS) and the KGL theory is due to the retention of only the first term in the Fourier expansion by KGL and concomitantly the inertial term by SS.
