Overview & Synopsis

We adapt to the smectic case the classical lubrication theory; plastic relaxation by edge dislocations climb is the controlling factor of the process, which appears to be more efficient than in the classical case. We show the existence of a critical velocity for the appearance of the undulation instability of the layers, related to the mobility of the dislocations. We compare these results to experiment.
