Abstract
This article explores a three-dimensional solid isogeometric analysis (3D-IGA) approach based on a nonlocal elasticity theory to investigate size effects on natural frequency and critical buckling load for multi-directional functionally graded (FG) nanoshells. The multi-directional FG material uses a power law rule with three power exponent indexes concerning three parametric coordinates. Nanoshell’s geometries include the square plate, cylindrical and spherical panels with the side length considered in a nanoscale with various thickness ratios. Because 3D-IGA utilizes an approximation of NURBS basic functions to integrate from geometry modeling to discretized domain, it does not require any hypotheses for deformations distribution and stress component through the plate’s thickness. Therefore, the results from the 3D solution are obtained accurately with any thickness ratio of the shells. The numerical solutions are verified by those published in several pieces of literature to determine the current approach’s accuracy and reliability. After a convergence solution is examined, a quartic NURBS basic function can yield ultra-converged and high-accurate results with a low computational cost. The findings show the size effect parameters which significantly impact the frequencies and the critical buckling factors of the multi-directional FG nanoshells. Generally, increases in the size effect parameters will cause declines in the frequencies and the critical buckling factors of the nanoshells.
