Abstract
This paper deals with transverse vibrations of three-dimensional vertically aligned periodic arrays of single-walled carbon nanotubes acted upon by both longitudinal magnetic and thermal fields. For this purpose, a nonlocal higher-order beam theory is employed for modeling of the nanosystem. Accounting for the intertube van der Waals forces, a discrete-based model as well as a continuous-based model is established. For various geometries of the nanosystem and under various applied thermal and magnetic fields, the results of the continuous model are successfully checked with those of the discrete model. Through a comprehensive parametric study, the effects of the nanotube's radius, slenderness ratio, nonlocality, ensemble's population, temperature change, and strength of magnetic field on fundamental frequencies of the nanosystem are addressed and displayed.
