The nonlinear static bending analysis of microplates resting on imperfect Pasternak elastic foundations is carried out in this paper. finite element method based the modified couple stress theory used to derive formulations. present and mathematical model are validated by comparisons work’s results with those other reputable publications, which show a very good agreement. influences length-scal...

The impetus of this study is to investigate the chaotic behavior of a size-dependent nano-beam with double-sided electrostatic actuation, incorporating surface energy effect and intermolecular interactions. The geometrically nonlinear beam model is based on Euler-Bernoulli beam assumption. The influence of the small-scale and the surface energy effect are modeled by implementing the consistent ...

In this paper, the transverse vibration of cracked nano-beam has been studied based on modified couple stress theory. Crack is modeled by a rotational spring that creates a discontinuity. Frequency equations of cracked nano-beam with some typical boundary conditions are derived and the frequency parameter for different crack positions, crack parameter and length scale parameters value are calcu...

The correspondence theorem which relates the solutions of displacement boundary value problems in classical and couple stress elasticity is formulated and applied to derive the solutions for edge and screw dislocations in an infinite medium. The effects of couple stresses on the dislocation strain energy is evaluated for both types of dislocations. It is shown that within a radius of influence ...

In this paper, vibration of the protein microtubule, one of the most important intracellular elements serving as one of the common components among nanotechnology, biotechnology and mechanics, is investigated using stress and strain gradient elasticity theory and orthotropic elastic shells model. Microtubules in the cell are influenced by internal and external stimulation and play a part in con...

Size-dependent longitudinal and torsional vibrations of nano-beams are examined by two-phase mixture integral elasticity. A new and efficient elastodynamic model is conceived by convexly combining the local phase with strain- and stress-driven purely nonlocal phases. The proposed stress-driven nonlocal integral mixture leads to well-posed structural problems for any value of the scale parameter...

Microtubules (MTs) are fibrous and tube-like cell substructures exist in cytoplasm of cells which play a vital role in many cellular processes. Surface effects on the vibration of bioliquid MTs surrounded by cytoplasm is investigated in this study. The emphasis is placed on the effect of the motor protein motion on the MTs. The MT is modeled as an orthotropic beam and the surrounded cytoplasm i...

The basic boundary-contact oscillation problems are considered for a three-dimensional piecewise-homogeneous isotropic elastic medium bounded by several closed surfaces. Using Carleman’s method, the asymptotic formulas for the distribution of eigenfunctions and eigenvalues are obtained. 1. After the remarkable papers of T. Carleman [1–2] the method based on the asymptotic investigation of the r...

in this article, the bending and free vibration analysis of functionally graded (fg) nanocomposites timoshenko beam model reinforced by single-walled boron nitride nanotube (swbnnt) using micro-mechanical approach embedded in an elastic medium is studied. the modified coupled stress (mcst) and nonlocal elasticity theories are developed to take into account the size-dependent effect. the mechani...
