A New Method of Fatigue Life Prediction for Notched Specimen
The simulations of the notched specimens under multiaxial loading were conducted by finite element method. The simulation results show that the stress gradient increases with the decrease in notch radius for the same strain path.

A theory of strain-gradient plasticity with effect of internal microforce [PDF]
This paper develops a theory of strain gradient plasticity for isotropic bodies undergoing small deformation in the absence of plastic spin. The proposed theory is based on a system of microstresses which include a microstress vector consistent with ...

Gradients of Strain to Increase Strength and Ductility of Magnesium Alloys
A strain gradient was produced in an AZ31B magnesium alloy through a plastic deformation of pure torsion at a torsional speed of π/2 per second. Compared with the base material and with the alloy processed by conventional severe plastic deformation,
