Abstract Variational principles and variationally consistent boundary conditions are derived for a system of double Rayleigh beams undergoing vibrations subject to axial loads. The elastic layer connecting the modelled as three-parameter nonlinear Winkler–Pasternak with Winkler having linear components Pasternak only component. forced freely vibrating beam using semi-inverse approach. Hamilton’...

In present study, thermo-elastic buckling analysis of multi-layer orthotropic annular/circular graphene sheets is investigated based on Eringen’s theory. The moderately thick and also thick nano-plates are considered. Using the non-local first and third order shear deformation theories, the governing equations are derived. The van der Waals interaction between the layers is simulated for multi-...

The aim of the paper is to analyze electro-thermo nonlinear vibration of a double-piezoelectric composite microplate-system (DPCMPS) based on nonlocal piezoelasticity theory. The two microplates are assumed to be connected by an enclosing elastic medium which is simulated by Pasternak foundation. Both of smart composite microplates are made of poly-vinylidene fluoride (PVDF) reinforced by zigza...

In this study, the vibration behavior of functional graded (FG) circular and annular nanoplate embedded in a Visco-Pasternak foundation and coupled with temperature change is studied. The effect of in-plane pre-load and temperature change are investigated on the vibration frequencies of FG circular and annular nanoplate. To obtain the vibration frequencies of the FG circular and annular nanopla...

the theoretical and experimental investigation on the thermo-mechanical properties of carbon nanotube (cnt) as reinforcer for oil and gas pipes has increasingly become a hot research area for many engineers and material scientists in recent years. this is mainly due to the advent of the new composite material systems that exhibit exotic material and mechanical properties as compared to the trad...
