A nonlocal strain gradient shell model incorporating surface effects for vibration analysis of functionally graded cylindrical nanoshells

Abstract

In this paper, a novel size-dependent functionally graded (FG) cylindrical shell model is developed based on the nonlocal strain gradient theory in conjunction with the Gurtin-Murdoch surface elasticity theory. The new model containing a nonlocal parameter, a material length scale parameter, and several surface elastic constants can capture three typical types of size effects simultaneously, which are the nonlocal stress effect, the strain gradient effect, and the surface energy effects. With the help of Hamilton’s principle and first-order shear deformation theory, the non-classical governing equations and related boundary conditions are derived. By using the proposed model, the free vibration problem of FG cylindrical nanoshells with material properties varying continuously through the thickness according to a power-law distribution is analytically solved, and the closed-form solutions for natural frequencies under various boundary conditions are obtained. After verifying the reliability of the proposed model and analytical method by comparing the degenerated results with those available in the literature, the influences of nonlocal parameter, material length scale parameter, power-law index, radius-to-thickness ratio, length-to-radius ratio, and surface effects on the vibration characteristic of functionally graded cylindrical nanoshells are examined in detail.

Adaptive prescribed‐time disturbance observer using nonsingular terminal sliding mode control: Extended Kalman filter and particle swarm optimization

“…Random location is considered for the position (value) of each design parameter to initialise the PSO. Using (32) and (33), the PSO updates the value of each design parameter and evaluates the optimum of the fitness function based on the stabilisation time. The procedure is summarised in Table 1.…”

“…A beam with axially immovable ends has the non-linear static or vibration behaviour for the large transverse loads, since the large deflection causes the axial tension while the strains have to remain small. Consequently, many studies have been conducted to study the vibration behaviour of micro/nanobeams [31][32][33][34][35]. Furthermore, the analysis of vibration control is used to prevent the micro/ nanobeams from damage and improve the performance and resolution of beams [36][37][38][39].…”

On well-posedness of two-phase nonlocal integral models for higher-order refined shear deformation beams

“…At the same time, a length-scale parameter is introduced to evaluate the size-effect. In practical applications [4][5][6] , integral constitutive relations are usually converted into a differential form that is easier to solve. However, some paradoxes appear when applying the differential form of Eringen's strain-driven model to bounded beam structures.…”

On size-dependent large-amplitude free oscillations of FGPM nanoshells incorporating vibrational mode interactions

“…Alipour and Shariyat [40] introduced a zigzag nonlocal model for Laplacian hygrothermal stress analysis of FG annular microplates. Lu et al [41] constructed a nonlocal strain gradient shells model for free oscillations of FG nanoshells. Sniady et al [42] performed stochastic vibrations of Euler-Bernoulli nanobeam based on the nonlocal elasticity.…”

“…Thereafter, by employing the Galerkin technique, the following orthogonal basis functions are taken into account Consequently, four coupled ordinary differential equations are extracted as in which i , i , i , i are constant parameters in terms of the material and geometrical characteristics.
