A nonlinear, nonlocal dielectric continuum model, called the nonlocal modified PoissonBoltzmann equation (NMPBE), has been proposed to reflect the spatial-frequency dependence of dielectric permittivity in the calculation of electrostatics of ionic-solvated biomolecules. However, its analysis is difficult due to its definition involving Dirac delta distributions for modeling point charges, expo...

In this article thermoelastic damping in nano-beam resonators is investigated based on nonlocal theory of elasticity and the Euler-Bernoulli beam assumptions. The governing equation of deflection of the beam is obtained from shear and moment resultants and stress–strain relationship of the nonlocal elasticity model and also the governing equations of thermoelastic damping are established by usi...

A method used recently to obtain a discrete formalism for classical fields with nonlocal actions preserving chiral symmetry and uniqueness of fermion fields yields a discrete version of Huygens’ principle with free discrete propagators that recover their continuum forms in certain limit.

Based on the nonlocal Timoshenko beam theory, the dynamic stability of functionally gradded (FG) nanoeams under axial load is studied in thermal environment, with considering surface effect. It is used power law distribution for FGM and the surface stress effects are considered based on Gurtin-Murdoch continuum theory. Using Von Karman geometric nonlinearity, governing equations are derived bas...

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...

This is the first paper in a series to study vertex algebra-like objects arising from infinite-dimensional quantum groups (quantum affine algebras and Yangians). In this paper we lay the foundation for this study. For any vector space W , we study what we call quasi compatible subsets of Hom(W,W ((x))) and we prove that any maximal quasi compatible subspace has a natural nonlocal (namely noncom...

In this study, the vibration behavior of circular and annular graphene sheet embedded in a Visco-Pasternak foundation and coupled with temperature change and under in-plane pre-load is studied. The single-layered annular graphene sheet is coupled by an enclosing viscoelastic medium which is simulated as a Visco- Pasternak foundation. By using the nonlocal elasticity theory and classical plate t...

In this paper, a size-dependent first-order shear deformation plate model is formulated in the framework of the higher-order generalized nonlocal strain-gradient (GNSG) theory. This modelemploys ...

Super resolution technology origins from the field of image restoration. The increasing difficulties in the resolution improvement by hardware prompts the super resolution reconstruction that can solve this problem effectively, but the general algorithms of super resolution reconstruction model are unable to quickly complete the image processing. Based on this problem, this paper studies on ada...

In this paper, the stability characteristics of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) under the action of axial load are investigated. To this end, a nonlocal Flügge shell model is developed to accommodate the small length scale effects. The analytical Rayleigh-Ritz method with beam functions is applied to the variational statement derived from the Flügge-type buckling equations. Molecular dy...
