Abstract
In this article, free vibration of functionally graded (FG) viscoelastic nanobeams embedded in viscoelastic foundation exposed to hygro-thermal loading is investigated based on nonlocal strain gradient elasticity theory and a higher order refined beam theory which captures shear deformation influences without the need for any shear correction factor. Also, the exact position of neutral axis is determined. The visco-Pasternak foundation is consists of parallel springs and dashpots as well as a shear layer. Temperature-dependent material properties of FGM beam are graded across the thickness based on the power-law form. Hamilton’s principle is used to obtain nonlocal governing equations of embedded strain gradient viscoelastic nanobeam which are solved analytically for various boundary conditions. The results are validated with those available in the literature. The impacts of visco-Pasternak foundation parameters, structural damping coefficient, hygro-thermal loading, nonlocal stress parameter, nonlocal gradient parameter, power-law exponent, mode number, boundary conditions and slenderness ratio on the damping frequency of nanoscale viscoelastic FG beams are evaluated.
