the present paper investigates the potential application of graphene sheets with attached nanoparticles as resonant sensors by introducing a nonlocal shear deformation plate model. to take into account an elastic connection between the nanoplate and the attached nanoparticle, the nanoparticle is considered as a mass-spring system. then, a combination of pseudo-spectral and integral quadrature m...

It is well known that the issue of controllability plays an important role in control theory and engineering (see [1]-[5]) because they have close connections to pole assignment, structural decomposition, quadratic optimal control, observer design etc. In recent years, the problem of controllability for various kinds of differential and impulsive differential systems has been extensively studie...

This paper is concerned with the existence and uniqueness of mild solution of the fractional differential equations with nonlocal conditions d q xt/dt q −Axt ft, xt, Gxt, t ∈ 0, T, and x0 gx x 0 , in a Banach space X, where 0 < q < 1. General existence and uniqueness theorem, which extends many previous results, are given.

In this paper, we study a parabolic equation with purely nonlocal (integral) conditions. We present a numerical approximate solution by Laplace transform method. Some experimental numerical results using the proposed numerical procedure are discussed.

The existence of solutions for quasilinear parabolic equation with boundary conditions and initial conditions can be discussed by maximal regularity, and more and more works on this field show that the maximal regularity method is efficient. Here we will use some of recently results developed by H. Amann to investigate a specific boundary value problems and then apply the existence theorem to t...

The hysteretic behavior of many-particle systems with non-convex free energy can be modeled by nonlocal Fokker-Planck equations that involve two small parameters and are driven by a timedependent constraint. In this paper we consider the fast reaction regime related to Kramers-type phase transitions and prove that the dynamics in the small-parameter limit can be described by a rate-independent ...

The rheology of dense granular flows is studied numerically in a shear cell controlled at constant pressure and shear stress, confined between two granular shear flows. We show that a liquid state can be achieved even far below the yield stress, whose flow can be described with the same rheology as above the yield stress. A nonlocal constitutive relation is derived from dimensional analysis thr...

In this paper, buckling and free vibration analysis of a circular tapered nanoplate subjected to in-plane forces were studied. The linear variation of the plate thickness was considered in radial direction. Nonlocal elasticity theory was employed to capture size-dependent effects. The Raleigh-Ritz method and differential transform method were utilized to obtain the frequency equations for simpl...
