In this paper, the Ritz method has been employed to analyze the free in-plane vibration of heterogeneous (non-uniform) rectangular nanoplates corresponding to Eringen’s nonlocal elasticity theory. The non-uniformity is taken into account using combinations of linear and quadratic forms in the thickness, material density and Young’s modulus. Two-dimensional boundary characteristic orthogonal pol...

This paper presents the governing equations on the rectangular plate with the variation of material stiffness through their thick using higher order shear deformation theory (HSDT). The governing equations are obtained by using Hamilton's principle with regard to variation of Young's modulus in through their thick with regard sinusoidal variation of the displacement field across the thickness. ...

In this paper a third order shear deformation rectangular nanoplate with simply supported boundary conditions is developed for bending, buckling and vibration analysis. to consider the small-scale effects, modified couple stress theory, one length scale parameter, used. The bending rates dimensionless values under uniform surface traction sinusoidal load, critical force uniaxial in x direction ...

This paper presents new exact 3-D (three-dimensional) elasticity closed-form solutions for out-of-plane free vibration of thick rectangular single layered FG (functionally graded) plates and thick rectangular homogeneous plate coated by a functionally graded layer with simply supported boundary conditions. It is assumed that the plate is on a Winkler-Pasternak elastic foundation and elasticity ...

this paper presents the thermal vibration analysis of double-layer graphene sheet embedded in polymer elastic medium, using the plate theory and nonlocal continuum mechanics for small scale effects. the graphene is modeled based on continuum plate theory and the axial stress caused by the thermal effects is also considered. nonlocal governing equations of motion for this double-layer graphene s...

in this article, surface stress and nonlocal effects on the biaxial and uniaxial buckling of rectangular silver nanoplates embedded in elastic media are investigated using finite difference method (fdm). the uniform temperature change is utilized to study thermal effect. the surface energy effects are taken into account using the gurtin-murdoch’s theory. using the principle of virtual work, the...

Shape-persistent replica synthesis of Au/Ag bimetallic nanoplates is invented. Using a tailored silica cage as a template for the synthesis, a successful shape-replication of Au/Ag bimetallic nanoplate is achieved at the cage core having geometry of initial Ag nanoplate. This work can open up the simple fabrication of multicomponent metallic particles, with nanogeometry being defined early at t...

We successfully synthesized SrNb2O6 with nanoplate morphology by a facile hydrothermal method. The SrNb2O6 nanoplate without any promoters or co-catalysts exhibited promising photocatalytic performance for the preferential reduction of CO2 with H2O vapour to CO and CH4 due to its high electron-hole separation and high CO2 chemisorption abilities.
