Abstract

So far, we have provided very comprehensive general formulations of the standard nonlocal continuum-based models and have considered their detailed applications in the investigation of various mechanical characteristics and functioning of a variety of nanoscopic structures. Recent developments in the nonlocal continuum mechanics have led to the emergence of some new ideas in the specialized literature. These ideas are different from the conventional ideas discussed so far in this book. To complement and complete our discussions about the nonlocal elasticity approaches, we include in this chapter some of the important concepts that have been proposed in these latest studies.
