An edge dislocation of atoms experience tensil, shear and compressive strains. Moreover, tensile strain produce a direct stresses and compressive strain produce in a body when two equal and opposite forces try to compress the body. Meanwhile, shear strain is produce under a shear stress where the body displace transversely from its original position.
