Stability analysis of a sandwich composite magnetostrictive nanoplate coupled with FG porous facesheets

The present study focuses on the buckling behavior of the magnetostrictive material integrated with the functionally graded facesheets. The effective material properties of the functionally graded layer are gained according to the power-law model. Eringen’s nonlocal theory has been used to count the small-scale parameter. On the other hand, the proposed system rests on the Winkler and Pasternak foundation to consider the elastic medium. Higher-order sinusoidal shear deformation theory has been utilized to reach the governing equation, and the reached governing equation is solved analytically based on the Galerkin solution for different boundary conditions. To trail the accuracy and efficiency of the current investigation, results are compared with the articles available in the literature. Additionally, the effect of various parameters such as aspect ratio, velocity feedback gain, the foundation on the critical buckling load is investigated. The current study results signify that by increasing the porosity volume parameter, the buckling load of the structure increases. It is hoped that the present research can help the engineers and designers to understand and predict buckling response and be beneficial in designing nanoscale systems such as sensors and actuators as the most demanded technologies.
