The author first uses novel molecular dynamics simulations to parameterise an efficient, stochastic and discrete dislocation model that allows access to experimental time and length scales. Simulated trajectories are in excellent agreement with experiment. The author also applies modern methods of multiscale analysis to extract novel bounds on the transport properties of these many body systems. Despite their successes in coarse graining, existing theories are found unable to explain stochastic defect dynamics. To resolve this, the author defines crystal defects through projection operators, without any recourse to elasticity. By rigorous dimensional reduction, explicit analytical forms are derived for the stochastic forces acting on crystal defects, allowing new quantitative insight into the role of thermal fluctuations in crystal plasticity. 410 0$aSpringer Theses, Recognizing Outstanding Ph.D. Research,$x2190-5053 606 $aSolid state physics 606 $aStatistical physics 606 $aDynamical systems 606 $aPhysics 606 $aSolid State Physics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P25013 606 $aComplex Systems$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P33000 606 $aNumerical and Computational Physics, Simulation$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19021 606 $aStatistical Physics and Dynamical Systems$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19090 615 0$aSolid state physics. 615 0$aStatistical physics. 615 0$aDynamical systems. 615 0$aPhysics. 615 14$aSolid State Physics. 615 24$aComplex Systems. 615 24$aNumerical and Computational Physics, Simulation. 615 24$aStatistical Physics and Dynamical Systems. 676 $a548.8420153154 700 $aSwinburne$b Thomas D$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0792539 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300402403321 996 $aStochastic Dynamics of Crystal Defects$91772356 997 $aUNINA
