Dielectric elastomers (DEs) have extensive applications in micro-electro-mechanical
systems and the biomedical fields. The utilization of DEs in driving micro-beams has …

As the fundamental structural element of the nano electro mechanical system (NEMS), the
mechanical properties of nano-beams are often affected by surface effects. In this study, we …

This work delves into the study of stresses induced in a non-homogeneous pre-stressed
nearly incompressible elastic substrate with irregularity as a result of a normal load moving …

In this paper, an annular/circular plate made of hyperelastic material and considering the
viscoelastic property was investigated based on a novel nonlinear elasticity theory. A new …

In this study, the displacements of cantilever beams for various slenderness ratios under
point load are analyzed using Timoshenko and Bernoulli-Euler beam theories. The variation …

Three-dimensional wave propagation in transversely graded nanobeams which consist of
nanostrips have been investigated in the present study. Cylindrical bending governing …
