Elastostatic fields of an embedded circular rigid nano/micro-fiber with interfacial damage in anti-plane couple stress elasticity

摘要

It is well-known that classical continuum theory has certain deficiencies in predicting the nanoscopic behavior of materials in the vicinity of defects. Couple stress theory is one of the higher order continuum theories which can overcome such difficulties by introducing new characteristic length. An accurate analytical determination of the elastic fields of an embedded circular nano/micro-rigid fiber with damaged interface under remote anti-plane loading in the context of couple stress elasticity is of particular interest.
