Abstract

The problem considered is that of an isotropic, thermoelastic nanobeam subjected to a moving concentrated loading. The solution of the problem is presented in the context of generalized theory of nonlocal thermoelasticity. Modal analysis along with Laplace’s transform technique is employed to obtain analytical solution of the governing partial differential equations. Effect of velocity of the moving load, nonlocal parameter and ramping-time parameter on dynamic deflection, temperature and flexural moment of the nanobeam has been investigated. Numerical results obtained from the present study are presented graphically and discussed.
