Continuum Mechanics at the Atomic Scale.

Abstract

The recent theories of nonlocal continuum mechanics are summarized and applied to the problems of plane waves, crack tip, screw dislocations, and secondary flow in rectangular pipes. The power and potential of these theories are demonstrated by predicting various critical physical phenomena in the range from the global to the atomic scales. (Author)
