In the present work we study the static response of functionally graded (FG) porous nanocomposite beams, with a uniform or non-uniform layer-wise distribution of the internal pores and graphene platelets (GPLs) reinforcing phase in the matrix, according to three different patterns. The finite-element approach is developed here together with a non-local strain gradient theory and a novel trigonometric two-variable shear deformation beam theory, to study the combined effects of the non-local stress and strain gradient on the FG structure. The governing equations of the problem are solved introducing a three-node beam element. A comprehensive parametric study is carried out on the bending behavior of nanocomposite beams, with a particular focus on their sensitivity to the weight fraction and distribution pattern of GPLs reinforcement, as well as to the non-local scale parameters, geometrical properties, and boundary conditions. Based on the results, it seems that the porosity distribution and GPLs pattern have a meaningful effect on the structural behavior of nanocomposite beams, where the optimal response is reached for a non-uniform and symmetric porosity distribution and GPLs dispersion pattern within the material.

基于非局部应变梯度理论的功能梯度多孔纳米复合材料梁的弯曲分析
在当前的工作中,我们根据三种不同的特性,研究了功能梯度(FG)多孔纳米复合材料梁的静态响应,这些梁具有内部孔和石墨烯血小板(GPLs)增强相的均匀或不均匀分层分布。模式。本文结合非局部应变梯度理论和新颖的三角二变量剪切变形梁理论,开发了有限元方法,以研究非局部应力和应变梯度对FG结构的综合影响。通过引入三节点梁单元,解决了该问题的控制方程。我们对纳米复合材料梁的弯曲行为进行了全面的参数研究,尤其关注它们对GPL增强材料的重量分数和分布模式的敏感性,以及非局部比例参数,几何特性和边界条件。根据结果,似乎孔隙率分布和GPLs模式对纳米复合梁的结构行为具有有意义的影响,其中对于材料中非均匀和对称的孔隙率分布和GPLs分散模式达到了最佳响应。
