An assessment of higher gradient theories from a continuum mechanics perspective
Ali R. Hadjesfandiari, Gary F. Dargush
In this paper, we investigate the inherent physical and mathematical character of higher gradient theories, in which the strain or distortion gradients are considered as the fundam…

Consistent continuous defect theory
Ali R. Hadjesfandiari, Gary F. Dargush
By investigating the benefits and shortcomings of the existing form of continuous defect theory (CDT) and using recent advancements in size-dependent continuum mechanics, we develo…
