Abstract
- Most suspension descriptions nowadays employed are based on the Jeffery's model andsome phenomenological adaptations of it that do not take into account size effects, that is, the kinematicsand stresses do not introduce a micro-mechanical characteristic length and thus, the rheologicalproperties become independent of the rod length. New models able to enrich first gradient kinematicsas well as to activate rod-bending mechanisms (needed for explaining the mild elasticity experimentallynoticed) are needed. In this paper we propose a second gradient description able to activate rods bending.
