Non-Conventional Thermodynamics and Models of Gradient Elasticity

Non-Conventional Thermodynamics and Models of Gradient Elasticity

We consider material bodies exhibiting a response function for free energy, which depends on both the strain and its gradient. Toupin–Mindlin’s gradient elasticity is characterized by Cauchy stress tensors, which are given by space-like Euler–Lagrange derivative of the free energy with respect to th...
