On the mechanics of FG nanobeams: A review with numerical analysis

open access: yesForces in Mechanics, 2023
Since the classical continuum theories are insufficient to account the small size effects of nanobeams, the nonlocal continuum theories such as Eringen's nonlocal elasticity theory, couple stress theory, strain gradient theory and surface elasticity ...

Axial and Torsional Free Vibrations of Elastic Nano-Beams by Stress-Driven Two-Phase Elasticity [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Applied and Computational Mechanics, 2019
Size-dependent longitudinal and torsional vibrations of nano-beams are examined by two-phase mixture integral elasticity. A new and efficient elastodynamic model is conceived by convexly combining the local phase with strain- and stress-driven purely ...

On Dislocations in a Special Class of Generalized Elasticity

open access: yes, 2005
In this paper we consider and compare special classes of static theories of gradient elasticity, nonlocal elasticity, gradient micropolar elasticity and nonlocal micropolar elasticity with only one gradient coefficient.

On the plastic buckling of curved carbon nanotubes

open access: yesTheoretical and Applied Mechanics Letters, 2020
This research, for the first time, predicts theoretically static stability response of a curved carbon nanotube (CCNT) under an elastoplastic behavior with several boundary conditions. The CCNT is exposed to axial compressive loads.

Non-linear elastic effects in phase field crystal and amplitude equations: Comparison to ab initio simulations of bcc metals and graphene [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We investigate non-linear elastic deformations in the phase field crystal model and derived amplitude equations formulations. Two sources of non-linearity are found, one of them based on geometric non-linearity expressed through a finite strain tensor ...

Nonlinear Analyses of Porous Functionally Graded Sandwich Piezoelectric Nano-Energy Harvesters under Compressive Axial Loading

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
In this study, a sandwich piezoelectric nano-energy harvester model under compressive axial loading with a core layer fabricated of functionally graded (FG) porous material is presented based on the nonlocal strain gradient theory (NSGT).

Thermodynamic Approach to Generalized Continua

open access: yes, 2013
Governing equations of dissipative generalized solid mechanics are derived by thermodynamic methods in the Piola-Kirchhoff framework using the Liu procedure. The isotropic small strain case is investigated in more detail.

Size-dependent electromechanical properties in piezoelectric superlattices due to flexoelectric effect

open access: yesTheoretical and Applied Mechanics Letters, 2017
Piezoelectric superlattice is a potential component for nanoelectromechanical systems. Due to the strong nonlocal effect such as flexoelectric effect at interfaces, classical piezoelectric theory is unable to accurately describe the electromechanical ...
