The bending response of functionally graded (FG) nanobeams under hygrothermal loading was investigated to emphasize the different scenarios that arise when using simplified and original boundary conditions. The governing equations were derived by using the principle of virtual work on the basis of the local/nonlocal stress gradient theory of elasticity. A Wolfram language code in Mathematica was written by the authors to develop a numerical investigation for different values of the material gradient index, the gradient length parameter, the nonlocal parameter, and considering two distinct types of thermal loading, that is, uniform temperature rise and heat conduction across the thickness of FG nanobeam cross-section.

Abstract
The bending response of functionally graded (FG) nanobeams under hygrothermal loading was investigated to emphasize the different scenarios that arise when using simplified and original boundary conditions. The governing equations were derived by using the principle of virtual work on the basis of the local/nonlocal stress gradient theory of elasticity. A Wolfram language code in Mathematica was written by the authors to develop a numerical investigation for different values of the material gradient index, the gradient length parameter, the nonlocal parameter, and considering two distinct types of thermal loading, that is, uniform temperature rise and heat conduction across the thickness of FG nanobeam cross-section.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
