The first comprehensive text to cover non-local elasticity theory for static, dynamic, and stability analysis of wide-ranging nanostructures, Non-local Structural Mechanics gives science and engineering graduates and researchers a detailed understanding of the methods of non-local analysis necessary for nanoscale structures.
Serving as a review on non-local mechanics, this book provides an introduction to non-local elasticity theory for static, dynamic and stability analysis in a wide range of nanostructures. The authors draw on their own research experience to present fundamental and complex theories that are relevant across a wide range of nanomechanical systems, from the fundamentals of non-local mechanics to the latest research applications.
