Abstract This study investigates the forced vibration of functionally graded hexagonal
nano-size plates for the first time. A quasi-three-dimensional (3D) plate theory including
stretching effect is used to model the anisotropic plate as a continuum one where smallscale effects are considered based on nonlocal strain gradient theory. Also, the plate is
assumed on a Pasternak foundation in which normal and transverse shear loads are taken
into account. The governing equations of motion are obtained via the Hamiltonian
principles which are solved using analytical based methods by means of Navier’s
approximation. The influences of the exponential factor, More >
