An isogeometric boundary element method (IGABEM) is developed for the analysis of two-dimensional linear and isotropic elastic bodies governed by couple stress theory. This theory simplest generalized continuum that can effectively model size effects in solids. The fundamental solutions are explicitly derived used to construct integral equations. A new equation arises obtain moments rotations i...

Characteristic features of squeeze film lubrication between two rectangular plates, of which, the upper plate has a roughness structure, in the presence of a uniform transverse magnetic field are examined. The fluid in the film region is represented by a viscous, incompressible and electrically conducting couple-stress fluid. The thickness of the fluid film region is h and that of the roughness...

INTRODUCTION For many donor-conceiving heterosexual parents, the process of deciding whether and what to tell children about their genetic origin is challenging. We hypothesized that incomplete couple agreement about disclosure could be associated with parenting stress. The aim of the study was to investigate: (1) parenting stress levels among heterosexual parents of young children following ga...

In this paper the nano conical shell model is developed based on modified strain gradient theory. The governing equations of the nano truncated conical shell are derived using the FSDT, and the size parameters through modified strain gradient theory have been taken into account. Hamilton’s principle is used to obtain the governing equations, and the shell’s equations of motion are derived with ...

In this paper, a size-dependent formulation for the Bernoulli-Euler beam is developed based on a new model of couple stress theory presented by Hadjesfandiari and Dargush. The constitutive equation obtained in this new model, consists of only one length scale parameter that is capable of capturing the micro-structural size effect in predicting the mechanical behavior of the structure. Having on...

In this paper, the quality factor of thermo-elastic damping in an electro-statically deflected micro-beam resonator has been investigated. The thermo-elastic coupled equations for the deflected micro-beam have been derived using variational and Hamilton principles based on modified couple stress theory and hyperbolic heat conduction model. The thermo-elastic damping has been obtained discretizi...
