In this study, a scale-dependent model is employed to investigate the size effects of copper on the behavior of the crack-tip. This model includes the homogeneous and non-homogeneous strain hardening based on the wavelet interpretation of size effect. Introducing additional micro/nano structural considerations together with decreasing grain size, different size effects can be obtained. As the size dependency is not taken into account in conventional plasticity, an enhanced theory which is related to the strain gradient introduces a length scale will give more realistic representations of state variables near the crack-tip. Accordingly, the contribution of geometrically necessary dislocations (GNDs) activity on strengthening and stress concentration factor is identified in the crack-tip. Finally, the affected zone which is dominated by presence of GNDs is identified
