Abstract

Abstract In this paper we derive a theory of thin chiral elastic plates in the framework of the strain gradient elasticity. A uniqueness result is established with no definiteness assumption on constitutive coefficients. In the equilibrium theory we derive the conditions under which the traction problem admits solution. The results are used to study the deformation of an infinite plate with a circular hole.
