Toward fractional gradient elasticity [PDF]
The use of an extension of gradient elasticity through the inclusion of spatial derivatives of fractional order to describe the power law type of non-locality is discussed. Two phenomenological possibilities are explored. The first is based on the Caputo

Non-Conventional Thermodynamics and Models of Gradient Elasticity [PDF]
We consider material bodies exhibiting a response function for free energy, which depends on both the strain and its gradient. Toupin–Mindlin’s gradient elasticity is characterized by Cauchy stress tensors, which are given by space-like Euler–Lagrange ...

Thermodynamically consistent gradient elasticity with an internal variable [PDF]
The role of thermodynamics in continuum mechanics and the derivation of proper constitutive relations is a topic discussed in Rational Mechanics. The classical literature did not use the accumulated knowledge of thermostatics and was very critical of the

Gradient elasticity solutions of 2D nano-beams
In this study, the exact analytical solutions of a two-dimensional linear homogeneous isotropic nano-beam in gradient elasticity are studied. Four different types of two-dimensional cantilever beams and related boundary conditions are considered.

A Proposition for a "Self-Consistent" Gradient Elasticity [PDF]
The notion of “self-consistent” boundary conditions in gradient elasticity is explored. They are introduced in the place of the “standard” boundary conditions commonly used in the formulation of gradient elasticity problems derived through corresponding variational principles.

The Green tensor of Mindlin’s anisotropic first strain gradient elasticity
We derive the Green tensor of Mindlin’s anisotropic first strain gradient elasticity. The Green tensor is valid for arbitrary anisotropic materials, with up to 21 elastic constants and 171 gradient elastic constants in the general case of triclinic media.

Gradient-enriched linear-elastic tip stresses to perform the highcycle fatigue assessment of notched plain concrete [PDF]
Gradient Elasticity (GE) allows the stress analysis to be performed by taking into account the size of the dominant source of microstructural heterogeneity via a suitable length scale parameter.
