The prime objective of the present investigation is to analyze the nonlinear buckling and
postbuckling characteristics of micro/nano-plates made of a porous functionally graded …

The work investigates the vibration behaviour of anisogrid composite lattice shell structures,
typically formed by a system of geodesic unidirectional composite ribs. A homogenization …

As a first step, variational formulations and governing equations with boundary conditions
are derived for a pair of Euler–Bernoulli beam bending models following a simplified version …

For three-dimensional cellular plate-like structures with a triangular (extruded lattice)
microarchitecture, the article develops a pair of two-scale plate models relying on the …

Sixth-order boundary value problems of a one-parameter gradient-elastic Kirchhoff plate
model are formulated in a weak form within an H 3 Sobolev space setting with the …

The equilibrium forms of pantographic blocks in a three-point bending test are investigated
via both experiments and numerical simulations. In the computational part, the …

The fourth-order boundary value problems of one parameter gradient-elastic bar and plane
strain/stress models are formulated in a variational form within an H 2 Sobolev space setting …

The Timoshenko beam bending problem is formulated in the context of strain gradient
elasticity for both static and dynamic analysis. Two non-standard variational formulations in …

In the study, three different higher order finite element models (HOFEMs) are developed to
perform the transient analysis of functionally graded (FG) microplates subjected to different …

We formulate a discrete Lagrangian model for a set of interacting grains, which is purely
elastic. The considered degrees of freedom for each grain include placement of barycenter …
