Abstract

Nanotechnology is one of the pillars of human life in the future. This technology is growing fast and many scientists work in this field. The behavior of materials in nano size varies with that in macro dimension. Therefore scientists have presented various theories for examining the behavior of materials in nano-scale. Accordingly, mechanical behavior of nano-plates, nanotubes nano-beams and nano-rodes are being investigated by Non-classical elasticity theories. This review includes the last researches on bending, buckling, and vibration of nano-plates, nano-beams, nanorods, and nanotubes which were investigated by non-local elasticity theory and nonlocal strain gradient theory. Great scholars have written valuable reviews in the field of nanomechanics. Therefore, given a large number of researches and the prevention of repetition, the articles in the past year are reviewed.
