Refinement to: “Buckling of a nano‐rod with taken into account of surface effect”

Abstract A refinement of the previously constructed models of bending of the Timoshenko and Euler–Bernoulli nano‐rod with taking into account the Steigmann–Ogden surface elasticity is considered. This refinement increases the coefficient of the lower derivative of the deflection in the bending equation by 50%, which can significantly affect the size effect. Updated results of modeling of buckling of a simply supported nano‐rod and a nano‐cantilever under its own weight.
