This study presents a physically-consistent displacement-driven reformulation of the concept action-at-a-distance, which is at foundation nonlocal elasticity. In contrast to class existing approaches that adopts an integral stress–strain constitutive relation, approach predicated on strain–displacement relation. One most remarkable consequence this (total) strain energy guaranteed be convex and...

In this paper, using energy method, small scale effects on the buckling analysis of a double-walled carbon nanotube (DWCNT) under external radial pressure is studied. The constitutive equations derived for a DWCNT using the nonlocal theory of elasticity which Eringen are presented for the first time. By minimizing the second variation of the total energy for a DWCNT, hence, the value of the non...

In this paper, surface effects including surface elasticity, surface stress and surface density, on the free vibration analysis of Euler-Bernoulli and Timoshenko nanobeams are considered using nonlocal elasticity theory. To this end, the balance conditions between nanobeam bulk and its surfaces are considered to be satisfied assuming a linear variation for the component of the normal stress thr...
