Boron Nitride Nanotube (BNNT) is a promising nano sized structure with superior electrical, physical, and mechanical properties comparing to Carbon nanotube. Higher Young’s modulus, oxidation resistance, hardness, corrosion durability in high temperature, piezoelectric pyroelectric characteristics are some featured of BNNT. In this paper the critical buckling load investigated. Two different me...

Based on the theories of thermal elasticity mechanics and nonlocal elasticity, an elastic Bernoulli–Euler beam model is developed for thermal-mechanical vibration and buckling instability of a single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) conveying fluid and resting on an elastic medium. The finite element method is adopted to obtain the numerical solutions to the model. The effects of temperature chan...

At what characteristic length scale does classical continuum elasticity cease to accurately describe small deformation mechanical behavior? The two dominant physical mechanisms that lead to size dependency of elastic behavior at the nanoscale are surface energy effects and nonlocal interactions. The latter arises due to the discrete structure of matter and the fluctuations in the interatomic fo...

The nonlocal nonlinear buckling of a double layer graphene sheet (DLGS) covered by zinc oxide (ZnO) piezoelectric layers is investigated in this study. The surrounding circumstances of the system are considered as a Pasternak foundation including spring constants and a shear layer. Graphene sheets are subjected to longitudinal magnetic field and biaxial forces. On the other hand, the ZnO piezoe...
