Mindlin's second strain gradient continuum theory for isotropic linear elastic materials is
used to model two different kinds of size-dependent surface effects observed in the …

We formulate effective necessary and sufficient conditions to identify the symmetry class of
an elasticity tensor, a fourth-order tensor which is the cornerstone of the theory of elasticity …

In the present paper spaces of fifth-order tensors involved in bidimensional strain gradient
elasticity are studied. As a result complete sets of matrices representing these tensors in …

Simplified isotropic models of strain gradient elasticity are presented, based on the mutual
relationship between the inherent (dual) gradient directions (ie the gradient direction of any …

In this paper the relaxed micromorphic material model for anisotropic elasticity is used to
describe the dynamical behavior of a band-gap metamaterial with tetragonal symmetry …

Abstract Strain Gradient Elasticity (SGE) is now often used in mechanics and physics, owing
to its capability to model some non-classical phenomena, such as size effects, in materials …

Many areas of continuum physics pose a challenge to physicists. What are the most general,
admissible statistically homogeneous and isotropic tensor-valued random fields (TRFs) …

We derive the atomistic representations of the elastic tensors appearing in the linearized
theory of first strain-gradient elasticity for an arbitrary multi-lattice. In addition to the classical …

For each of the 8 symmetry classes of elastic materials, we consider a homogeneous
random field taking values in the fixed point set VV of the corresponding class, that is …

We present the theory of space–time elasticity and demonstrate that it is the extended
reversible thermodynamics and gives the coupled model of thermoelasticity and heat …
