Finite Element Analyses of the Modified Strain Gradient Theory Based Kirchhoff Microplates

In this contribution, the variational problem for the Kirchhoff plate based on the modified strain gradient theory (MSGT) is derived, and the Euler-Lagrange equations governing the equation of motion are obtained. The Galerkin-type weak form, upon which the finite element method is constructed, is d...
