Dislocation in the vicinity of the interface: the nonlinear core region (schematically represented by the gray area) interacts with the continuum across the interface. The continuum part of the core (dark gray) is linear elastic while the atomistic part is nonlinear, leading to spurious forces. Ω A and Ω C denote the atomistic and continuum subdomains.
