Abstract
This article focuses on the study of the buckling behavior of two-dimensional functionally graded (2D-FG) nanosize
tubes, including porosity, based on the first shear deformation and higher-order theory of the tube. The nano-scale tube is
simulated using the nonlocal gradient strain theory, and the general equations and boundary conditions are derived using
Hamilton's principle for the Zhang-Fu's tube model (as a higher-order theory) and Timoshenko beam theory. Finally, the derived
equations are solved using a numerical method for both simply-supported and clamped boundary conditions. A parametric study
is performed to investigate the effects of different parameters, such as axial and radial FG power indices, porosity parameter, and
nonlocal gradient strain parameters, on the buckling behavior of the bi-dimensional functionally graded porous tube.
Keywords: Nonlocal strain gradient theory; buckling; Zhang-Fu's tube model; Timoshenko theory; Two-dimensional
functionally graded materials; Nanotubes; Higher-order theory.
