Mixed finite element analysis of nonlocal EulerBernoulli nanobeams
The size-dependent behaviour of nanobeams is investigated by using nonlocal theory and EulerBernoulli beam theory. The mixed finite element method is proposed to overcome the confusing fact of nonlocal beam model subjected to concentrated load. The numerical results indicate that the proposed method is successful to describe static response of nanobeams subjected to concentrated load.
