The elastic models of radial core-shell nanowires with diffuse interphase boundaries are suggested. The concept of eigenstrain is employed to consider a misfit stress distribution induced by diffusive interfaces with different range of distinctness. The eigenstrain profile described by the misfit parameter is approximated by piecewise-linear, error and arctangent functions. For these approximations the elastic stresses in core-shell nanowires are analytically derived, illustrated with plots and discussed in detail.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
