present paper is devoted to stress and deformation analyses of heated variable thickness functionally graded (fg) circular plate with clamped supported, embedded on a gradient elastic foundation and subjected to non-uniform transverse load. the plate is coupled by an elastic medium which is simulated as a winkler- pasternak foundation with gradient coefficients in the radial and circumferential...

Nonlinear behavior of a functionally graded cantilever beam is analyzed under non-uniform hygro-thermal effect. To solve this problem, finite element method is applied within plane solid continua. Total Lagrangian approach is utilized in the nonlinear kinematic relations. Newton-Raphson method with incremental displacement is used in nonlinear solution. Comparison study is performed. Effects of...

The damping vibration characteristics of magneto-electro-viscoelastic (MEV) nanobeam resting on viscoelastic foundation based on nonlocal strain gradient elasticity theory (NSGT) is studied in this article. For this purpose, by considering the effects of Winkler-Pasternak, the viscoelastic medium consists of linear and viscous layers. with respect to the displacement field in accordance with th...

This study presents a newly developed size-dependent beam-substrate medium model for bending, buckling, and free-vibration analyses of nanobeams resting on elastic substrate media. The Euler-Bernoulli beam theory describes the beam-section kinematics Winkler-foundation represents interaction between its underlying medium. reformulated strain-gradient elasticity possessing three non-classical ma...

Abstract A challenging task in nonlocal continuum mechanics consists formulating constitutive relations leading to well-posed structural problems. Several strategies have been adopted overcome issues inherent applicability of Eringen’s pure theory nanostructures, such as local/nonlocal mixtures elasticity and integral models involving modified averaging kernels. These can be applied the ill-pos...

In this paper, a refined plate theory is applied to investigate the free vibration analysis of functionally graded nanocomposite sandwich plates reinforced by randomly oriented straight carbon nanotube (CNT). The refined shear deformation plate theory (RSDT) uses only four independent unknowns and accounts for a quadratic variation of the transverse shear strains across the thickness, and satis...
