Size-dependent finite-deformation crystal plasticity
We have a new, slightly different perspective on the basis of size-dependent, finite-deformation crystal plasticity. If you are interested and have time to check it out, I’ll be happy to discuss it:
friction and persson's theory for fractal roughness
