An examination of the design of mathematical models incorporating both microstructural and surface effects in anti-plane deformations
DownloadSpring 2015
Micropolar theory and surface mechanics are rapidly becoming key tools in the development of more advanced models which can precisely describe the behavior of deformable elastic solids. Renewed interest in these areas has arisen due to the desire of researchers to generalize continuum-based...

Structures at relatively small scales (e.g. nano/micro scale) behave differently in comparison to those examined at the macro scale. This is mainly because a high surface area to volume ratio is present at this scale making physical factors such as surface stress/energy and electromagnetic forces...
