Abstract: The purpose of this two-part article, is first to give an update of recent developments of gradient plasticity as this was advanced by Aifantis and co-workers in the early eighties to address ...

Abstract: Wavelet analysis is used for describing heterogeneous deformation in different scales. Slip step height experimental measurements of monocrystalline alloy specimens subjected to compression are ...

Abstract: Free vibrations of a double-walled carbon nanotube (DWNT) are studied. The inner and outer carbon nanotubes are modeled as two individual elastic beams interacting each other by van der Waals ...

Abstract: Thermodynamically consistent constitutive equations are derived here in order to investigate size effects on the strength of composite, strain, and damage localization effects on the macroscopic response of the composite, ...
