Nanomechanical Properties

Nanomechanical Properties is the singular academic concept referring to the class of mechanical behaviors and responses—such as elasticity, hardness, strength, and deformation—exhibited by materials at the nanoscale, distinguished from bulk mechanical properties by the dominant influence of surface effects, quantum confinement, and discrete atomic structures intrinsic to nanosized systems.
