In this model, in addition to strain gradients evolving in the course of deformation, incipient strain gradients, related to a component's surface-to-volume ratio, is accounted for. Predictive capabilities of the model in characterizing a size effect in an initial yield and a work-hardening rate in small-scale components is demonstrated. The characteristic length-scale, i.e. the component's dimensions below which the size effect is observed, was found to depend on densities of polar and statistical dislocations and interaction between them.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessStrain Gradient PlasticitySize EffectSingle CrystalTitanium AlloyMicropillar CompressionArticle25310.1088/1361-651X/aa5ce32-s2.0-85015758900WOS:000398561800001Q3Q3
