The mechanical elastic properties of fine structures in micron and nanometer scales are size dependent. Experiments in bending of walled nanocarbon tubes have shown that the tube stiffness can increase by nearly ten times of conventional expectation when the size of the tube is decreased from 40 nanometers to 8 nanometers. The stiffness of micron-scaled epoxy beams has been shown to increase by three times when the beam thickness is reduced from 115 microns to below 20 microns. The stiffening has been attributed to the stiffening effects of strain gradients based on higher order elasticity theory. The higher order theory involves elastic material parameters in addition to the two in the classical theory for isotropic materials. Such mechanical behavior is important in micro- and nano-electromechanical systems and in optoelectronic applications.
Elasticity theories including the rotational gradients in the constitutive equations were developed in 1960s. Mindlin (1965) developed a general higher order stress theory to explain the size effect. Fleck and Hutchinson (1997) reformulated the theory and renamed it the strain gradient theory. We derived a modified strain gradient theory of elasticity with an alternate decomposition of the second order deformation gradient tensors. The additional material parameters of the higher order deformation theories manifest as the size effect.
We have established the beam bending and torsion solutions to identify the strain gradient contributions to the bending and torsion rigidities as a function of structural size. The size effect has been confirmed by experiments using epoxy. The confirmation of the significant elastic strain gradient effect by theory and experiments opens up a new frontier in the study of elasticity in micron- and nanometer-scaled structures.
