Abstract

In this article, an analytical approach is used to study the effects of thermal loading on the wave propagation characteristics of an embedded functionally graded nano-plate based on refined four-variable plate theory. The heat conduction equation is solved to derive the nonlinear temperature distribution across the thickness. Temperature-dependent material properties of nano-plate are graded using Mori-Tanaka model. The nonlocal elasticity theory of Eringen is introduced to consider small-scale effects. The governing equations are derived by means of Hamilton’s principle. Obtained frequencies are validated with those of previously published works. Moreover, effects of different parameters such as temperature distribution, foundation parameters, nonlocal parameter and gradient index on the wave propagation response of size-dependent functionally graded nano-plates have been investigated.
