The purpose of this paper is to analysis the viscoelastic models under dynamic loading. A five-parameter model is chosen for study exhibits elastic, viscous, and retarded elastic response to shearing stress. The viscoelastic specimen is chosen which closely approximates the actual behavior of a polymer. The module of elasticity and viscosity coefficients are assumed to be space dependent i.e. f...

Within the framework of strain gradient elasticity under finite deformations we formulate strong ellipticity conditions equilibrium equations. model a energy density is function first and second deformation gradients. Ellipticity involves certain constraints on tangent elastic moduli. It also closely related to infinitesimal stability which defined as positive definiteness variation potential f...

In many practical applications of nanotechnology and in microelectromechanical devices, typical structural components are in the form of beams, plates, shells and membranes. When the scale of such components is very small, the material microstructural lengths become important and strain gradient elasticity can provide useful material modelling. In addition, small scale beams and bars can be use...

Concepts from Finsler differential geometry are applied towards a theory of deformable continua with internal structure. The general theory accounts for finite deformation, nonlinear elasticity, and various kinds of structural features in a solid body. The general kinematic structure of the theory includes macroscopic and microscopic displacement fields – i.e., a multiscale representation – whe...

this study deals with the applications of a trigonometric shear deformation theory considering the effect of the transverse shear deformation on the static flexural analysis of the soft core sandwich beams. the theory gives realistic variation of the transverse shear stress through the thickness, and satisfies the transverse shear stress free conditions at the top and bottom surfaces of the bea...

In this paper, we propose a novel and efficient differential quadrature element based on Lagrange interpolation to solve a sixth order partial differential equations encountered in non-classical beam theories. These non-classical theories render displacement, slope and curvature as degrees of freedom for an Euler-Bernoulli beam. A generalize scheme is presented herein to implementation the mult...

We employ three dimensional x-ray coherent diffraction imaging to map the lattice strain distribution, and to probe the elastic properties of a single crystalline Ni (001) nanowire grown vertically on an amorphous SiO2 k Si substrate. The reconstructed density maps show that with increasing wire width, the equilibrium compressive stress in the core region decreases sharply while the surface ten...
