Size-dependent Mechanical Behavior

Size-Dependent Mechanical Behavior is a nanomechanical phenomenon in which the mechanical properties of a material exhibit measurable variation with changes in structural dimensions at the nanoscale, deviating from bulk material behavior due to increased surface-to-volume ratios and constraints on dislocation dynamics.
