AbstractIn this paper vibrations of the isotropic micro/nanoplates subjected to transverse and in-plane excitation are investigated. The governing equations of the problem are based on the von Kármán plate theory and Kirchhoff–Love hypothesis. The small-size effect is taken into account due to the nonlocal elasticity theory. The formulation of the problem is mixed and employs the Airy stress function. The two-mode approximation of the deflection and application of the Bubnov–Galerkin method reduces the governing system of equations to the system of ordinary differential equations. Varying the load parameters and the nonlocal parameter, the bifurcation analysis is performed. The bifurcations diagrams, the maximum Lyapunov exponents, phase portraits as well as Poincare maps are constructed based on the numerical simulations. It is shown that for some excitation conditions the chaotic motion may occur in the system. Also, the small-scale effects on the character of vibrating regimes are illustrated and discussed.

This paper introduces a novel approach for small-scale effects on nonlinear free-field vibration of a nano-disk using nonlocal elasticity theory. The formulation of a nano-disk is based on the nonlinear model of von Kármán strain in polar coordinates and classical plate theory. To analyze the nonlinear geometric and small-scale effects, the differential equation based on nonlocal elasticity theory was extracted from Hamilton principle, while the inertial and shear-stress effects were neglected. The equation of motion was discretized using the Galerkin method on selecting an appropriate function based on the boundary condition used for the nano-disk. Due to presence of nonlinear terms, the homotopy method was used in conjunction with the perturbation method (HPM) to ease up the solution and completely solve the problem. For further comparison, the nonlinear equations were solved by the fourth-order Runge–Kutta method, the solution of which was compared with that of HPM. Excellent agreements in results were observed between the two methods, indicating that the latter method can simplify the solution, and hence, can be applied to nonlinear nano-disk problems to seek their solution with a high accuracy.

Abstract Nonlinear vibrations of the orthotropic nanoplates subjected to an influence of in-plane magnetic field are considered. The model is based on the nonlocal elasticity theory. The governing equations for geometrically nonlinear vibrations use the von Kármán plate theory. Both the stress formulation and the Airy stress function are employed. The influence of the magnetic field is taken into account due to the Lorentz force yielded by Maxwell's equations. The developed approach is based on applying the Bubnov–Galerkin method and reducing partial differential equations to an ordinary differential equation. The effect of the magnetic field, elastic foundation, nonlocal parameter, and plate aspect ratio on the linear frequencies and the nonlinear ratio is illustrated and discussed.

AbstractParametric vibrations of the single-layered graphene sheet (SLGS) are studied in the presented work. The equations of motion govern geometrically nonlinear oscillations. The appearance of small effects is analysed due to the application of the nonlocal elasticity theory. The approach is developed for rectangular simply supported small-scale plate and it employs the Bubnov–Galerkin method with a double mode model, which reduces the problem to investigation of the system of the second-order ordinary differential equations (ODEs). The dynamic behaviour of the micro/nanoplate with varying excitation parameter is analysed to determine the chaotic regimes. As well the influence of small-scale effects to change the nature of vibrations is studied. The bifurcation diagrams, phase plots, Poincaré sections and the largest Lyapunov exponent are constructed and analysed. It is established that the use of nonlocal equations in the dynamic analysis of graphene sheets leads to a significant alteration in the character of oscillations, including the appearance of chaotic attractors.

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are capable to absorb and encapsulate some molecules to create new hybrid nano-structures providing a variety of functionally useful properties. CNTs functionalized by encapsulaitng single-stranded deoxy-ribonucleic acid (ssDNA) promise great potentials for applications in nanotechnology and nano-biotechnology. In this paper, buckling instability of ssDNA@CNT i.e. hybrid nano-structure composed of ssDNA encapsulated inside CNT has been investigated using the nonlocal elasticity theory. The nonlocal elasticity theory is capable to capture the small scale effects due to the discontinuity of nano-structures at atomic scales. The nonlocal elastic rod and shell equations are derived for modeling ssDNA and CNT respectively. Providing numerical examples, it is predicted that, ssDNA@(10,10) CNT is more resistant than the pristine (10,10) CNT against the buckling instability under radial pressure due to the inter-atomic van der Waals interactions between DNA and CNT. Furthermore, nonlocal elasticity theory predicts lower critical buckling pressure than does the local elasticity theory.

Classical plate theory (CLPT) and first-order shear deformation plate theory (FSDT) of plates are reformulated using the nonlocal elasticity theory. Developed nonlocal plate theories have been applied to study buckling behavior of nanoplates. Nonlocal elasticity theory, unlike traditional elasticity theory introduces a length scale parameter into the formulation to take into account the discrete structure of the material to some extent. Both single-layered and multilayered nanoplates have been included in the analysis. Navier's approach has been used to obtain exact solutions for buckling loads for simply supported boundary conditions. Dependence of the small scale effect on various geometrical and material parameters has been investigated. Present study reveals the presence of significant small scale effect on the buckling response of nanoplates. The theoretical development and the numerical results presented in the present work are expected to promote the use of nonlocal theories for more accurate prediction of stability behavior of nanoplates and nanoshells.

AbstractA nonlocal elasticity theory is a popular growing technique for mechanical analysis of the micro- and nanoscale structures which captures the small-size effects. In this paper, a comprehensive study was carried out to investigate the influence of the nonlocal parameter on the bifurcation behavior of a capacitive clamped-clamped nano-beam in the presence of the electrostatic and centrifugal forces. By using Eringen’s nonlocal elasticity theory, the nonlocal equation of the dynamic motion for a nano-beam has been derived using Euler–Bernoulli beam assumptions. The governing static equation of motion has been linearized using step by step linearization method; then, a Galerkin based reduced order model have been used to solve the linearized equation. In order to study the bifurcation behavior of the nano-beam, the static non-linear equation is changed to a one degree of freedom model using a one term Galerkin weighted residual method. So, by using a direct method, the equilibrium points of the system, including stable center points, unstable saddle points and singular points have been obtained. The stability of the fixed points has been investigated drawing motion trajectories in phase portraits and basins of attraction set and repulsion have been illustrated. The obtained results have been verified using the results of the prior studies for some cases and a good agreement has been observed. Moreover, the effects of the different values of the nonlocal parameter, angular velocity and van der Waals force on the fixed points have been studied using the phase portraits of the system for different initial conditions. Also, the influence of the nonlocal beam theory and centrifugal forces on the dynamic pull-in behavior have been investigated using time histories and phase portraits for different values of the nonlocal parameter.

This paper presents a nonlocal nonlinear first-order shear deformable plate model for investigating the buckling and postbuckling of magneto-electro-thermo elastic (METE) nanoplates under magneto-electro-thermo-mechanical loadings. The nonlocal elasticity theory within the framework of the first-order shear deformation plate theory along with the von Kármán-type geometrical nonlinearity is used to derive the size-dependent nonlinear governing partial differential equations and associated boundary conditions, in which the effects of shear deformation, small scale parameter and thermo-electro-magneto-mechanical loadings are incorporated. The generalized differential quadrature (GDQ) method and pseudo arc-length continuation algorithm are used to determine the critical buckling loads and postbuckling equilibrium paths of the METE nanoplates with various boundary conditions. Finally, the influences of the nonlocal parameter, boundary conditions, temperature rise, external electric voltage and external magnetic potential on the critical buckling load and postbuckling response are studied.

The present research deals with the wave dispersion behavior of a rotating functionally graded material (FGMs) nanobeam applying nonlocal elasticity theory of Eringen. Material properties of rotating FG nanobeam are spatially graded according to a power-law model. The governing equations as functions of axial force due to centrifugal stiffening and displacements are obtained by employing Hamilton’s principle based on the Euler–Bernoulli beam theory. By using an analytical model, the dispersion relations of the FG nanobeam are derived by solving an eigenvalue problem. Numerical results clearly show that various parameters, such as angular velocity, gradient index, wave number and nonlocal parameter, are significantly effective to characteristics of wave propagations of rotating FG nanobeams. The results can be useful for next generation study and design of nanomachines, such as nanoturbines, nanoscale molecular bearings and nanogears, etc.
