▎ 摘  要

In the present work, nonlocal elasticity theory has been implemented to study the vibration response of single-layered graphene (SLGS) sheets. The nonlocal elasticity theory accounts for the small size effects when dealing with nanostructures. Influence of the surrounding elastic medium on the fundamental frequencies of the SLGS is investigated. Both Winkler-type and Pasternak-type models are employed to simulate the interaction of the graphene sheets with a surrounding elastic medium. On the basis of Hamilton's principle governing differential equations for the aforementioned problems are derived. The nonlocal small scale coefficients get introduced into the nonlocal theory through the constitutive relations. Differential quadrature method is being employed and numerical solutions for the frequencies are obtained. Numerical results show that the fundamental frequencies of SLGS are strongly dependent on the small scale coefficients. Further, a nonlinear frequency response is observed for the SLGS with larger nonlocal effects and "Winkler-type modeled" surrounding medium.
