        In this paper, the static pull-in instability (SPIV) of beam-type micro-electromechanical systems is theoretically investigated. Herein, modified strain gradient theory in conjunction with Euler–Bernoulli beam theory have been used for mathematical modeling of the size dependent instability of the micro beams. Considering the mid-plane stretching as the source of the nonlinearity in the beam behavior, a nonlinear size-dependent Euler-Bernoulli beam model is used based on a modified couple stress theory, capable of capturing the size effect. Two common beam-type systems including double-clamped and clamped-free cantilever have been investigated. By selecting a range of geometric parameters such as beam lengths, width, thickness, gaps and size effect, we identify the static pull-in instability voltage. Back propagation artificial neural network (ANN) with three functions have been used for modelling the static pull-in instability voltage of micro beam. Effect of the size dependency on the pull-in performance has been discussed for both micro-structures. The network has four inputs of length, width, gap and the ratio of height to scale parameter of beam as the independent process variables, and the output is static pull-in voltage of microbeam. The number of nodes in the hidden layer, learning ratio and momentum term are optimized using genetic algorithms (GAs). Numerical data, employed for training the network and capabilities of the model in predicting the pull-in instability behaviour has been verified. The output obtained from neural network model is compared with numerical results, and the amount of relative error has been calculated. Based on this verification error, it is shown that the back propagation neural network has the average error of 6.36% in predicting pull-in voltage of cantilever micro-beam. Resultant low relative error value of the ANN model indicates the usability of the BPN in this area. تفاصيل المقالة

        In this study, the characteristics of rectangular Kirchhoff nano-plate vibrations are investigated using a modified couple stress theory. To consider the effects of small-scale, the modified couple stress theory proposed by Young (2002) is used as it has only one length scale parameter. In modified couple stress theory, the strain energy density is a function of the components of the strain tensor, curvature tensor, stress tensor, and symmetric part of the couple stress tensor. After obtaining the strain energy, external work, and kinetic energy equation and inserting them in the Hamilton principle, the main and auxiliary equations of nano-plate are obtained. Then, by applying the boundary and force conditions in the governing equations, the vibrations of the rectangular Kirschhof nano-plate with the thickness are investigated with simple support around. The solution method used in this study is the Navier method and the effects of material length scale, length and thickness of the nanoplate on the vibration are investigated and the results are presented and discussed in details. تفاصيل المقالة

        In this article, dynamic modeling of double walled cylindrical functionally graded (FG) microshell is studied. Size effect of double walled cylindrical FG microshell are investigated using modified couple stress theory (MCST). Each layer of microshell is embedded in a viscoelasticmedium. For the first time, in the present study, has been considered, FG length scale parameter in double walled cylindrical FG microshells, which this parameter changes along the thickness direction. Taking into consideration the first-order shear deformation theory (FSDT), double walled cylindrical FG microshell is modeled and its equations of motions are derived using Hamilton's principle. The novelty of this study is considering the effects of double layers and MCST, in addition to considering the various boundary conditions of double walled cylindrical FG microshell. Generalized differential quadrature method (GDQM) is used to discretize the model and to approximate the equation of motions and boundary conditions. Also, for confirmation, the result of current model is validated with the results obtained from molecular dynamics (MD) simulation. Considering length scale parameter (l=R/3) on MCST show, the results have better agreement with MD simulation. The results show that, length, thickness, FG power index, Winkler and Pasternak coefficients and shear correction factor have important role on the natural frequency of double walled cylindrical FG microshell. تفاصيل المقالة

        The present investigation deals with study of thermoelastic damping and frequency shift of Kirchhoff plate resonators by using generalized thermoelasticity theory of dual-phase-lag model. The basic equations of motion and heat conduction equation are written with the help of Kirchhoff-Love plate theory and dual phase lag model. The analytical expressions for thermoelastic damping and frequency shift of modified couple stress dual-phase-lag thermoelastic plate have been obtained. A computer algorithm has been constructed to obtain the numerical results. Influences of modified couple stress dual-phase-lag thermoelastic plate, dual- phase-lag thermoelastic plate and Lord-Shulman (L-S, 1967) thermoelastic plate with few vibration modes on the thermoelastic damping and frequency shift are examined. The thermoelastic damping and frequency shift with varying values of length and thickness are shown graphically for clamped-clamped and simply-supported boundary conditions. It is observed from the results that the damping factor and frequency shift have noticed larger value in the presence of couple stress for varying values of length but opposite effect are shown for varying values of thickness in case of both vibration modes and boundary conditions. تفاصيل المقالة

        This study deals with the vibration and stability analysis of double-graphene nanoribbon-system (DGNRS) based on different nonlocal elasticity theories such as Eringen's nonlocal, strain gradient, and modified couple stress within the framework of Rayleigh beam theory. In this system, two graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) are bonded by Pasternak medium which characterized by Winkler modulus and shear modulus. An analytical approach is utilized to determine the frequency and critical buckling load of the coupled system. The three vibrational states including out-of-phase vibration, in-phase vibration and one GNR being stationary are discussed. A detailed parametric study is conducted to elucidate the influences of the small scale coefficients, stiffness of the internal elastic medium, mode number and axial load on the vibration of the DGNRS. The results reveal that the dimensionless frequency and critical buckling load obtained by the strain gradient theory is higher than the Eringen's and modified couple stress theories. Moreover, the small scale effect in the case of in-phase vibration is higher than that in the other cases. This study might be useful for the design of nano-devices in which GNRs act as basic elements. تفاصيل المقالة

The detailed parametric study is conducted, focusing on the combined effects of the nonlocal parameter, magnetic field, visco-Pasternak foundation, Knudsen number, surface stress and fluid velocity on the dynamic instability of SWCNTs. The results depict that increasing magnetic field and considering surface effect shift DIR to right.

        In this article, the effect of size-dependent on the buckling and vibration analysis of functionally graded (FG) double-layer boron nitride plate based on classical plate theory (CPT) under electro-thermo-mechanical loadings which is surrounded by elastic foundation is examined. This subject is developed using modified couple stress theory. Using Hamilton's principle, the governing equations of motion are obtained by applying a modified couple stress and von Karman nonlinear strain for piezoelectric material and Kirchhoff plate. These equations are coupled for the FG double-layer plate using Pasternak foundation and solved using Navier’s type solution. Then, the dimensionless natural frequencies and critical buckling load for simply supported boundary condition are obtained. Also, the effects of material length scale parameter, elastic foundation coefficients and power law index on the dimensionless natural frequency and critical buckling load are investigated. The results demonstrate that the dimensionless natural frequency of the piezoelectric plate increases steadily by growing the power law index. ‌‌Also, the effect of the power law index on the dimensionless critical buckling load of double layer boron nitride piezoelectric for higher dimensionless material length scale parameter is the most. تفاصيل المقالة

        Microtubules (MTs) are fibrous and tube-like cell substructures exist in cytoplasm of cells which play a vital role in many cellular processes. Surface effects on the vibration of bioliquid MTs surrounded by cytoplasm is investigated in this study. The emphasis is placed on the effect of the motor protein motion on the MTs. The MT is modeled as an orthotropic beam and the surrounded cytoplasm is assumed as an elastic media which is simulated by Pasternak foundation. In order to consider the small scale effects, the modified couple stress theory (MCST) is taken into account. An analytical method is employed to solve the motion equations obtained by energy method and Hamilton’s principle. The influence of surface layers, bioliquid, surrounding elastic medium, motor proteins motion, and small scale parameter are shown graphically. Results demonstrate that the speed of motor proteins is an effective parameter on the vibration characteristics of MTs. It is interesting that increasing the motor proteins speed does not change the maximum and minimum values of MTs dynamic deflection. The presented results might be useful in biomedical and biomechanical principles and applications. تفاصيل المقالة

        In this study, the vibration behavior of functional graded (FG) circular and annular nanoplate embedded in a Visco-Pasternak foundation and coupled with temperature change is studied. The effect of in-plane pre-load and temperature change are investigated on the vibration frequencies of FG circular and annular nanoplate. To obtain the vibration frequencies of the FG circular and annular nanoplate, two different size dependent theories are utilized. The material properties of the FGM nanoplates are assumed to vary in the thickness direction and are estimated through the Mori–Tanaka homogenization technique. The FG circular and annular nanoplate is coupled by an enclosing viscoelastic medium which is simulated as a Visco- Pasternak foundation. By using the modified strain gradient theory (MSGT) and the modified couple stress theory (MCST), the governing equation is derived for FG circular and annular nanoplate. The differential quadrature method (DQM) and the Galerkin method (GM) are utilized to solve the governing equation to obtain the frequency vibration of FG circular and annular nanoplate. The results are subsequently compared with valid result reported in the literature. The effects of the size dependent, the in-plane pre-load, the temperature change, the power index parameter, the elastic medium and the boundary conditions on the natural frequencies are investigated. The results show that the size dependent parameter has an increasing effect on the vibration response of circular and annular nanoplate. The temperature change also play an important role in the mechanical behavior of the FG circular and annular nanoplate. The present analysis results can be used for the design of the next generation of nanodevices that make use of the thermal vibration properties of the nanoplate تفاصيل المقالة
