Classical continuum models exhibit strong mesh dependency during strain softening. For such materials, the phenomenon may be regularized via the gradient-enhanced nonlocal formulation. The paper discusses the implicit gradient framework and demonstrates that standard nonlocal enhancement may serve only as a partial localization limiter. The over-nonlocal approach, where the weight for the nonlo...

In this chapter, we extend the first-order NOM to higher order by using a Taylor series expansion. The is special case of NOM. can be derived two methods, one weighted expansion, and other minimization operator energy functional for For quadratic functional, residual, tangent stiffness matrix nonlocal strong form. section on numerical examples, applied current method problems formulated form we...

The paper shows that spectral wave propagation analysis reveals in a simple and clear manner the effectiveness of various regularization techniques for softening materials, i.e., materials for which the yield limits soften as a function of the total strain. Both plasticity and damage models are considered. It is verified analytically in a simple way that the nonlocal integral-type model with de...

To improve the structural stiffness, strength and reduce weight of nanoplate structure, functionally graded (FG) graphene-reinforced nanocomposite (GRNC) laminated plates are exploited in this paper. The bending buckling behaviors FG-GRNC nanoplates investigated by using novel quasi-3D hyperbolic higher order shear deformation plate theory conjunction with modified continuum nonlocal strain gra...

In this article thermoelastic damping in nano-beam resonators is investigated based on nonlocal theory of elasticity and the Euler-Bernoulli beam assumptions. The governing equation of deflection of the beam is obtained from shear and moment resultants and stress–strain relationship of the nonlocal elasticity model and also the governing equations of thermoelastic damping are established by usi...

Strain gradient elasticity and nonlocal are two enhanced elastic theories intensively used over the last fifty years to explain static dynamic phenomena that classical fails do. The theory has a clear differentiation from case by considering stresses at point of continuum as an integral defined in treated body. On other hand, strain is characterized non-classical because considers both potentia...

In this paper we study the asymptotic behavior of solutions to the nonlocal operator ut(x, t) = (−1) n−1 (J ∗ Id − 1)n (u(x, t)), x ∈ R which is the nonlocal analogous to the higher order local evolution equation vt = (−1)(∆)v. We prove that solutions to both equations have the same asymptotic decay rate as t goes to infinity. Moreover, we prove that the solutions of the nonlocal problem conver...
