This paper deals with the surface effect and size dependence on the energy release
due to a nano InAs inclusion expansion in an infinite plane GaAs matrix material
under uni-axial or bi-axial loadings. By accounting for the surface tension and the
surface Lamẻ constants, the variable tendencies of the M-integral representing the
energy release due to the inclusion expansion against the loading or against the
inclusion radius are plotted and discussed in detail. It is concluded that the surface
effect inhibits the M-integral significantly and the M-integral may be either positive
related to the energy release or negative related to the energy absorbing. This is
because the mutual interaction between the external loading and the surface effect
yields an additional contribution to the M-integral, which is always negative and
proportional to the external loading.
