Abstract A brief summary is presented on the current status of knowledge regarding the dynamic behavior of crystalline materials in terms of athermal, thermally activated, viscous damping, and relativistic motion of dislocations. It is shown that dislocation concepts have contributed substantially to a better and more unified rationalization of the dynamic behavior of crystalline materials than heretofore possible. Particular emphasis is given to the need for a more complete theoretical understanding of dislocation mechanics. Also, the requirements for more detailed and better experiments are expressed particularly for dislocation-velocity determinations in the viscous damping and relativistic ranges of conditions.
