Abstract
The capabilities of the proposed nonlocal beam models in the companion paper in capturing the critical velocity of a moving nanoparticle as well as the dynamic response of double-walled carbon nano- tubes (DWCNTs) under a moving nanoparticle are scrutinized in some detail. The role of the small-scale effect parameter, slenderness of DWCNTs and velocity of the moving nanoparticle on dynamic deflections and nonlocal bending moments of the innermost and outermost tubes as well as their maximum values are then investigated. The results reveal that the critical velocity increases with the slenderness of DWCNTs and the magnitude of the van der Waals interaction force. Nevertheless, the critical velocity generally decreases with the small-scale effect as well as the ratio of the mean diameter to the thickness of the innermost tube. Additionally, the predicted maximum dynamic deflections and nonlocal bending moments of the innermost and outermost tubes by using the nonlocal Euler-Bernoulli and Timoshenko beam theories are generally the lower and upper bounds of those obtained by the nonlocal higher-order beam theory (NHOBT). In the case of λ1 < 20, the use of the NHOBT is highly recommended for more realistic prediction of dynamic response of DWCNTs under a moving nanoparticle.
