in this article, finite difference method (fdm) is used to solve sixth-order derivatives of differential equations in buckling analysis of nanoplates due to coupled surface energy and non-local elasticity theories. the uniform temperature change is used to study thermal effect. the small scale and surface energy effects are added into the governing equations using eringen’s non-local elasticity...

due to high surface-to-volume ratio of nanoscale structures, surface stress effects have a significant influence on their behavior. in this paper, a two-dimensional problem for an elastic layer that is bonded to a rigid substrate and subjected to an inclined concentrated line load acting on the surface of the layer is investigated based on gurtin-murdoch continuum model to consider surface stre...

This paper proposes a new approach for representing elasto-plastic behavior through graphical visualization of the yield surface and the stress path in the principal stress space. The yield surface is defined by thematerial parameters of a given yield criterion, and the stress path is formed by a number of stress points, each of which is obtained for every increment in the applied force. The su...

the major problem in material removal process specially grinding is heat generation during the process and thus residual stress on the surface of product. therefore, optimization of high efficiency deep grinding (hedg) process is the main goal of this study in order to reduce heat and residual stress and also increase strength and surface hardness of aisi1045 steel by optimization of the proces...

There are two major objectives to the present work. The first objective is to demonstrate that, in contrast to predictions from linear surface elastic theory, when nonlinear, finite deformation kinematics are considered, the residual surface stress does impact the resonant frequencies of silicon nanowires. The second objective of this work is to delineate, as a function of nanowire size, the re...

It has been demonstrated experimentally that thin liquid layers may be applied to a solid surface or substrate if a temperature gradient is applied which results in a surface tension gradient and surface traction. Two related problems are considered here by means of the long-wave or lubrication theory. In the first problem, an improved estimate of the applied liquid coating thickness for a liqu...

Ab initio calculations, based on norm-conserving pseudopotentials and density functional theory, have been performed to investigate the displacive Sb adsorption on the Si(0 0 1) surface with the (2 1) reconstruction. For the onemonolayer coverage of Sb, even though the formation of a pure Sb–Sb dimer is energetically more favorable than the interdiffusion of Sb into any of the second and third ...

the present paper studies the possibility of propagation of torsional surface waves in an inhomogeneous anisotropic layer lying between two heterogeneous half-spaces (upper and lower half-space). both the half-spaces are assumed to be under compressive initial stress. the study reveals that under the assumed conditions, a torsional surface wave propagates in the medium. the dispersion relation ...

the new non-conventional cutting process by the use of thermal shock is a convenient procedure for cutting the brittle materials such as glasses and ceramics. this method is based on the application of localized thermal shock to brittle materials by the use of hot air jet, which induces thermal stresses at the tip of an existed pre-crack. due to the thermo-elastic behavior of materials, the pre...
