ABSTRACT
For disordered systems, structure of which may be presented as a media with high density of linear topological defects, we offer a mechanism of shear rigidity. The last is localisation of kinks on the defect that results in limitation of its motion. The approach allows to predict the plastic deformation threshold temperature dependence and to connect it with the fractal dimension of defects, and also to explain the dependence of glass temperature on cooling rate.
