Abstract.

In this paper, thermal vibration behavior of functionally graded (FG) nanobeams exposed to various kinds of thermo-mechanical loading including uniform, linear and non-linear temperature rise embedded in a two-parameter elastic foundation are investigated based on third-order shear deformation beam theory which considers the influence of shear deformation without the need to shear correction factors. Material properties of FG nanobeam are supposed to be temperature-dependent and vary gradually along the thickness according to the Mori-Tanaka homogenization scheme. The influence of small scale is captured based on nonlocal elasticity theory of Eringen. The nonlocal equations of motion are derived through Hamilton’s principle and they are solved applying analytical solution. The comparison of the obtained results is conducted with those of nonlocal Euler-Bernoulli beam theory and it is demonstrated that the proposed modeling predicts correctly the vibration responses of FG nanobeams. The influences of some parameters including gradient index, nonlocal parameter, mode number, foundation parameters and thermal loading on the thermo-mechanical vibration characteristics of the FG nanobeams are presented.
