Vibration of an axially loaded viscoelastic nanobeam is analyzed in this study. Viscoelasticity of the nanobeam is modeled as a Kelvin-Voigt material. Equation of motion and boundary conditions for viscoelastic nanobeam are provided with help of Eringen’s Nonlocal Elasticity Theory. Initial conditions are used in solution of governing equation of motion. Damping effect of the viscoelastic nanobeam structure is investigated. Nonlocal effect on natural frequency and damping of nanobeam and critical buckling load is obtained.

In this article, electromechanical buckling behavior of size-dependent flexoelectric/piezoelectric nanobeams is investigated based on nonlocal and surface elasticity theories. Flexoelectricity represents the coupling between the strain gradients and electrical polarizations. Flexoelectric/piezoelectric nanostructures can tolerate higher buckling loads compared with conventional piezoelectric ones, especially at lower thicknesses. Nonlocal elasticity theory of Eringen is applied for analyzing flexoelectric/piezoelectric nanobeams for the first time. The flexoelectric/piezoelectric nanobeams are assumed to be in contact with a two-parameter elastic foundation which consists of infinite linear springs and a shear layer. The residual surface stresses which are usually neglected in modeling of flexoelectric nanobeams are incorporated into nonlocal elasticity to provide better understanding of the physics of the problem. Applying an analytical method which satisfies various boundary conditions, the governing equations obtained from Hamilton’s principle are solved. The reliability of the present approach is verified by comparing the obtained results with those provided in literature. Finally, the influences of nonlocal parameter, surface effects plate geometrical parameters, elastic foundation, and boundary conditions on the buckling characteristics of the flexoelectric/piezoelectric nanobeams are explored in detail.
