Nonlocal and gradient elasticity in micro/nano structures

Nonlocal and gradient elasticity in micro/nano structures is a research topic within Materials Chemistry. Science Explorer counts 10k research works in it since 1959. 9.9% of them reached the world's top 10% most cited for their field and year.

This cluster of papers focuses on the application of nonlocal continuum mechanics, strain gradient theory, and microstructure-dependent models to analyze the behavior of nanoscale materials. It explores the effects of flexoelectricity, surface tension, and size-dependence on the elasticity, plasticity, and wave propagation in functionally graded beams and other nanoscale structures.
