Development and implementation of new triangular finite element based on MGE theory for bi-material analysis

Compared with the classical continuum theory, the modified gradient elastic theory (MGE theory) better explains the size effect, strain and damage localization of materials. In this paper, we constructed a C1 planar triangular finite element based on the MGE theory. We also derived its finite elemen...
