摘要
The mathematical nature of the flow rule for the strain gradient plasticity theory proposed by Nix and Gao (W.D. Nix and H. Gao, J Mech Phys Solids 46(3), 411(1998)) is discussed based on the paradigm developed by Gurtin and Anand (M.E. Gurtin and L. Anand, J Mech Phys Solids 57 (3), 405 (2009)). It is shown that, when investigated on the basis of Gurtin-Anand theory, the Nix-Gao flow rule is a combination of constitutive equations for microstresses, balance law, and a constraint. As an accessory, we demonstrate that the strain gradient term introduced in the model is energetic. The results are obtained by combining a virtual-power principle of Fleck and Hutchinson, and the free-energy imbalance under isothermal conditions.
