Thermo-electro-magneto-mechanical bending behavior of size-dependent sandwich piezomagnetic nanoplates

چکیده مقاله

Thermo-electro-magneto-mechanical bending analysis of a sandwich nanoplate is presented in this paper based on Kirchhoff’s plate theory and nonlocal theory. The sandwich nanoplate includes an elastic nano-core and two piezomagnetic face-sheets actuated by applied electric and magnetic potentials. The governing equations for the electro-magneto-mechanical bending are derived in terms of the displacement components and electric and magnetic potentials. Then, the problem is solved analytically by using Navier’s method. A parametric study is presented to show the effects of the nonlocal parameter, temperature rise, applied electric and magnetic potentials on the bending behaviors of sandwich nanoplates for simply-supported boundary conditions. As a main result of study, it is concluded that the deflection decreases as applied electric potential increases and applied magnetic potential decreases. In addition, the increase of nonlocal parameter leads to increase of deflection and maximum electric potential through the thickness direction.
