Popis: This paper is concerned with studying the size-dependent nonlinear dynamic pull-in instability and vibration of functionally graded Euler–Bernoulli nanobeams (FG-EBNs) with the von Kármán hypothesis based on the nonlocal strain gradient theory (NLSGT). To this end, the partial differential equation (PDE) is developed by Hamilton’s principle considering the intermolecular, fringing field and electrostatic nonlinear forces. Then, the Galerkin method (GM) is utilized to acquire the ordinary differential equation (ODE) and the results are obtained with the help of an analytical approach called the homotopy analysis method (HAM). To verify the outcome of this study, the nonlinear and linear frequencies obtained are compared with those of the literature. Consequently, the pull-in voltage of the FG nanobeam is obtained and the variations of nonlinear and linear frequencies are discussed in detail. Also, the effects of initial amplitude, electrostatic force, length scale, nonlocal parameter, material gradient index and boundary condition (BC) on the electromechanical behavior of FG-EBNs are analyzed with the results commented.
