Abstract:The authors construct a bridge between a microscale view and a nanoscale one in continuum mechanics. When the size of structure reduces to nanolevel, the ratio of surface to volume increases. Then, the surface stresses, which like to surface tension in fluid, influence on bulk stresses. In the present paper, the authors analyze a problem that anisotropic nanothin layers are deposited on a half substrate. Interface stresses and interface elasticity are taken into account for the boundary condition for each laye… Show more
