Dynamic Analysis of Sandwich Magnetostrictive Nanoplates with a Mass–Spring–Damper Stimulator

Abstract

This study aims to examine the dynamic characteristics of a sandwich composite nanoplate when exposed to a nano damper–spring–mass stimulator. The composite structure consists of a core layer composed of magnetostrictive material, accompanied by upper and lower facesheets made of functionally graded material (FGM). Moreover, the proposed framework is designed to be based on a visco-Pasternak medium. The governing equations of nanoplates are derived using the higher-order shear deformation theory (HSDT) and Hamilton’s principle. In the end, Navier’s solution is utilized to solve partial differential equations, while the Laplace transform is employed for solving ordinary differential equations. Subsequently, a thorough investigation is conducted with a primary focus on examining the impact of different parameters on the dynamic response of the continuous system. The findings indicate that the incorporation of the damper–spring–mass system into the nanoplate has a notable impact on its natural frequency. The results can serve as reference points for the effective development of nanosensors, nanoresonators, drug delivery systems, and biosensors.
