Abstract
Abstract A micro scale Timoshenko beam was modeled with strain gradient theory in “A micro scale Timoshenko beam model based on strain gradient elasticity theory” by Wang et al., European Journal of Mechanics – A/Solids, vol. 29, pp. 591–599, 7//2010. Looking at the modeling of the beam, a mistake in deriving the effect of classical moment has occurred. The classical boundary conditions of a Timoshenko beam could not be derived going backward from the strain gradient Timoshenko beam theory which has been presented in aforementioned paper. In this comment, the contradiction has been shown and the correct form of the boundary conditions and final equations has been derived.
