Nonlinear Mechanics of Microstructures
Journal Title: Global Journal of Engineering Sciences - Year 2019, Vol 1, Issue 4
Abstract
In this paper, a brief review is presented on the influence of nonlinearity on the mechanics of microscale structures. The constitutive equations of size-dependent elasticity-based theories such as the couple stress are presented. The linear size-dependent elasticity-based models of microscale structures are discussed. Furthermore, the effects of different types of nonlinearity on the static stability, oscillation and static deformation of microscale structures are reviewed.
