surface and small scale effects on free transverse vibration of a single-walled carbon nanotube (swcnt) fitted with y-junction at downstream end conveying viscose fluid is investigated in this article based on euler-bernoulli beam (ebb) model. nonlocal elasticity theory is employed to consider small scale effects due to its simplicity and efficiency. the energy method and hamilton’s principle a...

this paper is concerned with the surface and small scale effects on transverse vibration of a viscoelastic single-layered graphene sheet (slgs) subjected to an in-plane magnetic field. the slgs is surrounded by an elastic medium which is simulated as visco-pasternak foundation. in order to investigate the small scale effects, the nonlocal elasticity theory is employed due to its simplicity and ...

in the current study, an effort is made to determine three dimensional bearing capacity of rectangular foundations using discrete element method. the soil mass is modeled as discrete blocks connected with winkler springs. different factors affect the geometry of failure surface. six independent angles are used to define the failure surface. by trial and error, the optimum shape of failure surfa...

In this study, the seismic interaction of surface foundations and underground cavities was investigated. For this purpose, a parametric study of geometric dimensions of the foundation and cavity, their location, and the effect of the interaction between surface foundations and underground cavities was evaluated. The variable parameters include the ratio of the overburden height to the foundatio...

In this paper, size-dependent effects on the vibration behavior of Timoshenko microbeams under pre-stress loading embedded in an elastic foundation, using modified strain gradient theory (MSGT) and surface stress effects, were studied. To consider the surface stress effects, the Gurtin–Murdoch continuum mechanical approach was employed. Using Hamilton’s principle, the governing equations of mot...

in this research, the surface stress effect on the nonlocal vibration of piezoelectric square plate reinforced by single walled carbon nanotubes (swcnts) based on classical plate theory (cpt) and first order shear deformation theory (fsdt) is presented. the elastic properties of piezoelectric nanocomposite plate are estimated by eshelby-mori-tanaka and the extended mixture rule approaches. the ...
