Nano mechanics

Nano mechanics is a branch of Nano science studying important mechanical (thermal, kinetic and elastics) properties of physical system at the nanometer scale. Nano mechanics has looked as if on the crossroads of classical mechanics, solid state physics, materials science, and quantum chemistry. Being an area of Nano science, Nano mechanics provides a scientific basis of nanotechnology. Nano mechanics is observed on some experimental principles (basic observation), specifically general mechanics principles and specific principles arising from the smallness of physical sizes of the object of study. These principles serve to supply a basic insight into novel mechanical properties of nanometer objects.
