Abstract
The effects of flexoelectricity on thickness-twist waves propagating in the nanoplates are analytically investigated. Detailed calculations are performed for nonpiezoelectric material using the method of reverberation-ray matrix (MRRM), by which the numerical instability usually encountered in the conventional methods can be successfully avoided. Based on the derived characteristic equation, the dispersion relations, phase velocity and group velocity of the structures with different geometry and material parameters are subsequently plotted and compared. The numerical results show that the flexoelectric effect is really essential and cannot be neglected to predict wave propagation behavior especially in the nanoscale structures.
