Recent advances in the theory of thermoelasticity and the modified models for the nanobeams: a review

Abstract

AbstractThe present study focuses on recent research on thermoelasticity theories as well as their associated reformed models related to the micro-/nano-beams/nano-bars. Our goal is to present an overview of the use and limitations of existing relevant theories. The properties of these theories were analyzed by many researchers in a variety of fields as well as different problems, providing insight into their characteristics. In this review, we discuss theory, techniques, formulation, as well as limitations for solving equations for micro-/nano-beams/nano-bars. In light of the fact that this review may be a useful tool for researchers who work in sensitive industries such as MEMS/NEMS/Resonators/Sensors.
