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

Rectified cell migration on saw-like micro-elastically patterned hydrogels with asymmetric gradient ratchet teeth. [PDF]
To control cell motility is one of the essential technologies for biomedical engineering. To establish a methodology of the surface design of elastic substrate to control the long-range cell movements, here we report a sophisticated cell culture hydrogel

Strain gradient elasticity within the symmetric BEM formulation [PDF]
The symmetric Galerkin Boundary Element Method is used to address a class of strain gradient elastic materials featured by a free energy function of the (classical) strain and of its (first) gradient.

Elastic solids with strain-gradient elastic boundary surfaces
Abstract Recent works have shown that in contrast to classical linear elastic fracture mechanics, endowing crack fronts in a brittle solid with Steigmann-Ogden surface elasticity yields a model that predicts bounded strains at the crack tips for plane-strain problems. However, a logarithmic singularity is still present in general for anti-plane

Nonlinear flexure mechanics of beams: stress gradient and nonlocal integral theory
In order to study the intrinsic size-effects, the stress gradient theory is implemented to a nano-scale beam model in nonlinear flexure. The nonlocal integral elasticity model is considered as a suitable counterpart to examine the softening behavior of ...

Finite Gradient Models with Enriched RBF-Based Interpolation
A finite strain gradient model for the 3D analysis of materials containing spherical voids is presented. A two-scale approach is proposed: a least-squares methodology for RVE analysis with quadratic displacements and a full high-order continuum with both
