The classical continuum mechanics assumes that a material is a composition of an infinite
number of particles each of which is a point that can only move and interact with its nearest …

Though widely used in modelling nano-and micro-structures, Eringen's differential model
shows some inconsistencies and recent study has demonstrated its differences between the …

The inconsistency of Eringen's nonlocal differential model, as applied to investigate
nanostructures, has recently triggered the study of nonlocal integral models. In this paper we …

Size-dependent structural behavior of inflected Timoshenko elastic nano-beams is
investigated by nonlocal continuum mechanics. An innovative stress-driven integral model …

Ultrafast lasers, even the novel laser burst technology, have been widely using in numerous
applications, especially in micro-machining. The mechanism of ultrafast laser and matter …

Size-dependent bending behavior of Bernoulli-Euler nano-beams is investigated by
elasticity integral theory. Eringen's strain-driven nonlocal integral formulation, providing the …

The paper is concerned with comparative analysis of differential and integral formulations for
boundary value problems in nonlocal elasticity. For the sake of simplicity, the focus is on an …

Purpose The paper aims to use a switching technique which allows to couple a nonlocal
bond-based Peridynamic approach to the Meshless Local Exponential Basis Functions …

Strain gradient elasticity and nonlocal elasticity are two enhanced elastic theories
intensively used over the last fifty years to explain static and dynamic phenomena that …

Small-scale effects in nanobeams are effectively described by the E ringen model of
nonlocal elasticity. The nonlocal elastostatic problem of B ernoulli–E uler nanobeams is …
