ABSTRACT
This study develops the transient thermoelectromechanical vibration and bending analysis of a functionally graded piezoelectric nanosheet rest on visco-Pasternak’s foundation. Nonlocal elasticity theory as well as classical plate theory is used to implement basic equations of the nanosheet. The plate is resting on visco-Pasternak’s foundation and subject to mechanical, thermal, and electrical loadings. Hamilton’s principle is used for derivation equations of motion in terms of displacement components. As a first case study and for validation of the responses of the system, nonlocal vibration analysis of nanosheet is studied. The effects of nonlocal parameter and nonhomogeneous index of nanosheet are studied on the fundamental frequencies of the system. As the main objective of this study, the electrothermal bending results of the nanosheet are studied. The effects of some important parameters such as nonlocal parameter, nonhomogeneous index, thickness, distribution of electric potential, and damping are calculated on the maximum deflection of the sheet under various thermal and electrical loadings.
