“…Surface elastic constants can be obtained through atomic calculations [Shenoy 2005]; their direct measurement has been very difficult until now. Investigations of the deformation of some elementary nanosized devices (for example, beams, tubes, and plates) have demonstrated that the predictions of Gurtin's surface/interface elasticity theory agree reasonably well with direct atomic simulations [Miller and Shenoy 2000;Shenoy 2002].…”

“…Although surface elasticity theory has been extensively used to elucidate the effects of various sizedependent phenomena on elastic fields in nanowires caused by static loadings [Chen et al 2006;Jing et al 2006], to date, however, investigation of surface effects on the dynamic behaviors of long nanotubes/nanowires has been comparatively lacking. As a few examples in the context of dynamic loadings in conjunction with surface elasticity theory, we mention studies regarding the diffraction of plane compressional/shear waves by nanosized inhomogeneities/voids (embedded in an elastic medium) [Wang 2007;Hasheminejad and Avazmohammadi 2009] He and Lilley [2008] studied the influence of the surface stress on the resonance frequencies of bending nanowires using EulerBernoulli beam theory and, similarly, the natural frequencies of a microbeam in the presence of surface effects were estimated in [Abbasion et al 2009] based on Timoshenko beam theory.…”

“…This phenomenon has been observed in a number of studies and, in particular, the effect of surface tension on the properties of nano-sized structures has been noted in (Cuenot et al, 2004;Jing et al, 2006;Park and Klein, 2008;Stan et al, 2008;Eremeyev et al, 2009;Wang et al, 2010). The reason for the surface effects is the difference in the behavior of atoms depending on whether they are close to a free surface or within the bulk of the material.…”

“…Such nanoelectromechanical systems (NEMS) with nanomechanical resonators usually operate as transducers, where their mechanical behavior necessitates a sound modeling approach [4]. Recently, it has been shown that due to the dominance of the free surface in nanoscale structures, mechanical properties exhibit a pronounced size dependence [5]. A distinct surface energy contribution at the nanoscale due to the difference in atomic arrangement is the main reason for the size dependence in nanostructures [6].…”
