Multilayered nanoscale structures are used in several applications.Because the effect of surface energy becomes nontrivial at such a small scale,a modified continuum theory is required to accurately predict their mech...
Ever after being granted Booker Prize in 1978, Iris Murdoch's novel The Sea, The Sea has attracted a lot of critical attention. The heroin Hartley, seemingly silenced, is actually independent and strong-minded. Recons...
Presented in this paper is a precise investigation of the effect of surface stress on the vibration characteristics and instability of fluid-conveying nanoscale pipes.To this end,the nanoscale pipe is modeled as a Tim...
Love and moral are the main themes of Iris Murdoch' s literary works.As the combination of the two main themes,her Eros theory plays a significant role in her works.On the basis of her personal perception of Platonic ...

It is showed that all equations of the linearized Gurtin-Murdoch model of surface elasticity can be derived, in a straightforward way, from a simple second-order expression for the ratio of deformed surface area to in...
