A simplified shear and normal deformations nonlocal theory for bending of functionally graded piezomagnetic sandwich nanobeams in magneto-thermo-electric environment

چکیده مقاله

A simplified three-unknown shear and normal deformations nonlocal beam theory for thermo-electro-magneto mechanical bending analysis of a nanobeam with a functionally graded material core and two functionally piezomagnetic layers is studied in this paper. The assumed structure is subjected to mechanical, thermal, electrical, and magnetic loads. An initial applied voltage and magnetic load is considered on the functionally graded piezomagnetic material layers. Eringen’s nonlocal constitutive equations are con- sidered in the analysis. Governing equations are derived according to the present refined theory using the principle of virtual displacements. The numerical results includ- ing the deflection, electric, and magnetic potential distribution are calculated in terms of important parameters of the problem such as applied electric and magnetic potentials, two parameters of temperature distribution, and nonlocal parameter. The numerical results indicate that increase in applied electric potential increases the deflection unlike the applied magnetic potential that decreases the deflection. Furthermore, it can be concluded that increasing the nonlocal parameter leads to increase in the deflection.
