Abstrakt: The present study investigates the wave propagation characteristics of porous, multi-directional, functionally graded (FG) nanoplates embedded in a Kerr-elastic substrate. A first-order shear deformation model (FSDM) and the nonlocal strain gradient approach (NSGA) are utilized to address this issue. The NSGA is enhanced by considering softening and hardening material effects, leading to improved accuracy in the obtained results. In accordance with the law of mixing, the material properties of the nanoplates exhibit nonlinear temperature-dependent variations along the structural axes. Both even and uneven porosity profiles are considered in this study. The nonclassical governing equations for the proposed structure are derived using Hamilton's approach. The phase velocity and wave frequency are determined through the analytical solution of an eigenvalue problem, which depends on the wave number. The dispersion properties of waves in porous FG nanoplates are examined with respect to various factors, including porosity distributions, wave numbers, nonlocal and strain gradient effects, elastic foundation coefficients, and volume fraction index. The main findings of the study indicate that increasing the volume fraction index in the thickness direction leads to a decrease in the phase velocity and frequency of wave propagation in a porous FG nanoplate for a given wave number. Additionally, regardless of the porosity pattern, an increase in the porosity coefficient results in a decrease in wave frequency and phase velocity.
