Introduction

Figure 1. A torus with twist and dislocations

We study the properties in flexible crystalline membranes of torus-like topology effected by dislocations and twist. I independently implemented the construction algorithm (mainly divided into grid coordinate transformation and defect location determination), and carried out GPU acceleration.
