Abstract

A size-dependent Euler–Bernoulli beam model is derived within the framework of the higher-order nonlocal strain gradient theory. Nonlocal equations of motion are derived by applying Hamilton’s principle and solved with an analytical solution. The solution is obtained using the Navier solution procedure. In the case of simply supported boundary conditions, the analytical solutions of natural frequencies and critical buckling temperature for free vibration problems are obtained. The paper investigates the thermal effects on buckling and free vibrational characteristics of functionally graded size-dependent nanobeams subjected to various types of thermal loading. The influence of higher-order and lower-order nonlocal parameters and strain gradient scale on buckling and vibration are investigated for various thermal conditions. The obtained results are compared with previous research.
