Stress gradient continuum theory

S Forest, K Sab - Mechanics Research Communications, 2012 - Elsevier
A stress gradient continuum theory is presented that fundamentally differs from the well-
established strain gradient model. It is based on the assumption that the deviatoric part of …

Boundary conditions in 2D numerical and 3D exact models for cylindrical bending analysis of functionally graded structures

F Tornabene, S Brischetto, N Fantuzzi… - Shock and …, 2016 - Wiley Online Library
