Abstract

Purpose

To study free vibration and bending analyses of a sandwich microbeam with a functionally graded (FG) porous core and two polymeric face sheets reinforced with graphene nanoplatelets (GPLs).

Methods

In this paper, the modified couple stress theory (MCST) and a quasi-3D trigonometric shear deformation beam theory are employed. The resultant material properties are examined using the rules of micromechanical. The equations derived through energy method are solved by Navier’s method to obtain the natural frequencies and deflection of the nanobeam for a simply-supported boundary condition.

Results

Trueness of the results are justified through comparison with the new recently published materials. Parametric static and dynamic results are presented for investigating effect of significant parameters on the frequencies and deflections of the sandwich microbeam, such as porosity parameter, distribution of the pores, the thickness of the core, volume fraction and distribution pattern of the GPLs, thickness-to-length scale parameter, and foundation coefficients.

Conclusions

The results show that the VA distribution type has the biggest deflection and the AV one has the lowest value of static bending.
