In this paper, an attempt is made to investigate the Poisson effect in modified couple stress microbeam models by use of available experimental data of an epoxy micro-cantilever. Euler-Bernoulli and Timoshenko microbeam models based on modified couple stress theory are employed to analyze static bending behavior of the epoxy micro-cantilever theoretically. It is indicated that incorporating the Poisson effect resulting in overestimation of bending rigidity of the epoxy micro-cantilever.
