Internal Length Gradient (ILG) Material Mechanics Across Scales & Disciplines
Elias C. Aifantis
A combined theoretical/numerical/experimental program is outlined for extending the ILG approach to consider time lags, stochasticity and multiphysics couplings. Through this exten…
Non-Standard Extensions of Gradient Elasticity: Fractional Non-Locality, Memory and Fractality
Vasily E. Tarasov, Elias C. Aifantis
Derivatives and integrals of non-integer order may have a wide application in describing complex properties of materials including long-term memory, non-locality of power-law type…
Nanomechanics of a screw dislocation in a functionally graded material using the theory of gradient elasticity
Kamyar Davoudi, Hossein Davoudi, Elias Aifantis
The modest aim of this short article is to provide some new results for a screw dislocation in a functionally graded material within the theory of gradient elasticity. These result…
Roughening and pinning of interface cracks in shear delamination of thin films
M. Zaiser, P. Moretti, A. Konstantinidis +1
We investigate the roughening of shear cracks running along the interface between a thin film and a rigid substrate. We demonstrate that short-range correlated fluctuations of the…
Nucleation of interfacial shear cracks in thin films on disordered substrates
Michael Zaiser, Paolo Moretti, Avraam Konstantinidis +1
We formulate a theoretical model of the shear failure of a thin film tethered to a rigid substrate. The interface between film and substrate is modeled as a cohesive layer with ran…
On Dislocations in a Special Class of Generalized Elasticity
M. Lazar, G. A. Maugin, E. C. Aifantis
In this paper we consider and compare special classes of static theories of gradient elasticity, nonlocal elasticity, gradient micropolar elasticity and nonlocal micropolar elastic…
