Abstract

The mixture unified gradient theory of elasticity is invoked for the rigorous analysis of the dynamic characteristics of elastic nanobeams. A consistent variational framework is established and the boundary-value problem of dynamic equilibrium enriched with proper form of the extra non-standard boundary conditions is detected. As a well-established privilege of the stationary variational theorems, the constitutive laws of the resultant fields cast as differential relations. The wave dispersion response of elastic nano-sized beams is analytically addressed and the closed form solution of the phase velocity is determined. The free vibrations of the mixture unified gradient elastic beam is, furthermore, analytically studied. The dynamic characteristics of elastic nanobeams is numerically evaluated, graphically illustrated, and commented upon. The efficacy of the established augmented elasticity theory in realizing the softening and stiffening responses of nano-sized beams is evinced. New numerical benchmark is detected for dynamic analysis of elastic nanobeams. The established mixture unified gradient elasticity model provides a practical approach to tackle dynamics of nano-structures in pioneering MEMS/NEMS.
