Abstract

Abstract : Vibration analyses on axially moving functionally graded nanoplates exposed to hygrothermal environments are presented. The theoretical model of the nanoplate is described via the Kirchhoff plate theory in conjunction with the concept of the physical neutral layer. By employing the nonlocal strain gradient theory, the governing equation of motion is derived based on Hamilton's principle. The composite beam function method, as well as the complex modal approach, is utilized to obtain the vibration frequencies of axially moving functionally graded nanoplates. Some benchmark results related to the effects of temperature changing, moisture concentration, axial speed, aspect ratio, nonlocal parameter, and the material characteristic scale parameter on the stiffness of axially moving functionally graded nanoplates are obtained. The results reveal that with increasing the nonlocal parameter, gradient index, temperature changing, moisture concentration, and axial speed, the vibration frequencies decrease. The frequencies increase while increasing the material characteristic scale parameter and aspect ratio. Moreover, there is an interaction between the nonlocal parameter and material characteristic scale parameter, influencing and restricting each other.
