This monograph presents a general mathematical theory for biological growth. It provides
both a conceptual and a technical foundation for the understanding and analysis of …

In this paper, an efficient higher-order shear deformation theory is presented to analyze
thermomechanical bending of temperature-dependent functionally graded (FG) plates …

A single-elastic beam model has been developed to analyze the thermal vibration of single-
walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) based on thermal elasticity mechanics, and nonlocal …

In this paper a mixed method, which combines the state space method and the differential
quadrature method, is proposed for bending and free vibration of arbitrarily thick beams …

This paper is concerned with the thermoelastic bending of FG beams resting on two-layer
elastic foundations. One of these layers is Winkler springs with a variable modulus while the …

The engineering community generally accepts that there exists only a small set of closed-
form solutions for simple cases of bars, beams, columns, and plates. Despite the advances …

This paper presents a finite element technique for determining the vibration characteristics of
a uniform Timoshenko beam-column supported on a two-parameter elastic foundation. The …

Serving as a review on non-local mechanics, this book provides an introduction to non-local
elasticity theory for static, dynamic and stability analysis in a wide range of nanostructures …

A theory for the dynamics and statics of growing elastic rods is presented. First, a single
growing rod is considered and the formalism of three-dimensional multiplicative …

An exact free vibration analysis of doubly-curved laminated composite shallow shells has
been carried out by combining the dynamic stiffness method (DSM) and a higher order …
