The main purposes of the present work are devoted to the investigation of the free axial vibration, as well as the time-dependent and forced axial vibration of a SWCNT subjected to a moving load. The governing equation is derived through using Hamilton's principle. Eringen’s nonlocal elasticity theory has been utilized to analyze the nonlocal behaviors of SWCNT. A Galerkin method based on a clo...

The variational approach to weakly nonlocal thermodynamic theories is critically revisited in the light of modern nonequilibrium thermody-namics. The example of Ginzburg-Landau equation is investigated in detail.

We find nonlocal particle theories with two dimensional conformal symmetry, including examples equivalent to the bosonic open string and closed string. This work provides a new approach to construct solvable consistent backgrounds in string theory.

In this article, a new higher order shear deformation theory based on trigonometric shear deformation theory is developed. In order to consider the size effects, the nonlocal elasticity theory is used. An analytical method is adopted to solve the governing equations for static analysis of simply supported nanoplates. In the present theory, the transverse shear stresses satisfy the traction free...

Imperfection sensitivity of large amplitude vibration of curved single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) is considered in this study. The SWCNT is modeled as a Timoshenko nano-beam and its curved shape is included as an initial geometric imperfection term in the displacement field. Geometric nonlinearities of von Kármán type and nonlocal elasticity theory of Eringen are employed to derive govern...

Graphene possesses excellent physical and chemical properties and has potential applications in nanobiological devices and nanoelectromechanical systems such as actuators [1], optoelectronics [2], and biosensors [3]. In addition, the vibrational properties play an important role in structural stability of nanoelectromechanical systems used in dynamic environments. In the recent years, several r...

A interacting theory that violates CPT invariance necessarily violates Lorentz invariance. On the other hand, CPT invariance is not sufficient for out-of-cone Lorentz invariance. Theories that violate CPT by having different particle and antiparticle masses must be nonlocal.

In the present paper, the free vibration characteristics of nanobeams embedded in an elastic medium are investigated. Inclusion of size effects is considered in the analysis by incorporating Eringen’s nonlocal elasticity continuum into the classical Euler–Bernoulli beam theory. To include the surrounding elastic medium, the Pasternak elastic foundation model is utilized, including shear deforma...

In the present study, nonlinear free vibration behavior of nanobeam subjected to magnetic field is investigated based on Eringen’s nonlocal elasticity and Euler–Bernoulli beam theory. The Hamilton’s principal is adopted to derive the governing equations together with Euler–Bernoulli beam theory and the von-Kármán’s nonlinear strain–displacement relationships. An approximate analytical solution ...

The nonlinear bending behavior of sector graphene sheets is studied subjected to uniform transverse loads resting on a Winkler-Pasternak elastic foundation using the nonlocal elasticity theory. Considering the nonlocal differential constitutive relations of Eringen theory based on first order shear deformation theory and using the von-Karman strain field, the equilibrium partial differential eq...
