This paper aims to prove the inaccuracy of the Navier solution presented by Aghababaei and Reddy [1] for the bending analysis of nanoplates based on the nonlocal theory of Eringen. According to the derived relations for bending of the nonlocal plate model, the main cause of this inaccuracy is attributed to an incorrect approximation of the Navier solution for a uniform transverse load. Of course, this problem does not inherently occur for the Navier solution in cases such as free vibration or the buckling of a nonlocal plate model in which the amount of transverse load is zero. In order to obtain further verification the results reported based on the Navier solution by Aghababaei and Reddy (2009, [1] ) for the bending analysis of a nanoplate are compared with those computed by the differential quadrature (DQ) and finite difference (FD) methods. As shown, the results obtained by both the FD and DQ methods are consistently alike and unlike the solutions reported by Aghababaei and Reddy (2009, [1] ) they are independent from small scale effect.
