An analytically nonlocal EulerBernoulli beam model for the wave propagation in fluid-filled
single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) is established. The governing equations with the
nonlocal effects are derived on the variational principle, and used in the wave propagation
analysis of the SWCNT beam. Compared with the partially nonlocal EulerBernoulli beam
models used previously, the analytically nonlocal model presented in the present study
predicts well the effects of the stiffness enhancement and the wave damping at the high
wavenumber or the strong nonlocal effects area for the fluid-filled SWCNT beam. Though the
analytical model is less sensitive than the partially nonlocal model when the moving velocity
of the internal fluid is high enough, it simulates more of the high-order nonlocal effecting
information than the partially nonlocal model does in many cases.

1. Introduction
Since the discovery of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) in the early 1990s [1], the mechanical behaviors of CNTs have attracted
many research interests. Especially, the wave propagation behavior of a fluid-filled CNTs beam is an interesting and
challenging topic since CNTs are quite acceptable in nanobiological and nanomechanical applications such as nano fluid
conveyance and drug delivery [2,3]. The research approaches about mechanical behaviors of the fluid-conveyed CNTs
beam include experimental and theoretical analyses. However, the experimental results about the CNTs properties are not
accurate enough since the nano scale experiment is quite difficult to manipulate or control [4]. Therefore, theoretical
analyses are more acceptable for the research of CNTs.
Theoretical methods of studying on the mechanics behaviors of CNTs have molecular dynamic (MD) simulation and
mechanics modeling. MD simulation is the most common and accurate computational approach for analyzing CNTs, because the
behavior of every molecule of CNTs and fluid are simulated in code. However, MD approach is inefficient because of its complicate
calculation, time consuming and instability, especially for a large scale system[5,6]. Thus the elastic continuum models of CNTs
are developed. Ru et al. for the first time applied the classical continuum model on the dynamical analysis for a fluid-conveyed
CNTs beam[7,8]. They discussed the influences of the internal moving fluid on the free vibration of the CNTs beam and flow
induced structural instability of a SWCNT beam which was modeled as a classical EulerBernoulli beam. Zhangs group
investigated the dynamical behaviors for a fluid-conveyed multiple-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) beam based on the
EulerBernoulli beam models[9,10]. Similar dynamical analyses were also completed based on Donnells cylindrical shell model
for the MWCNTs beam[11,12]. However, applying directly this on the classical beam or shell models possibly leads to inaccurate
results, since the influences of the nanoscale effects on the mechanical properties of the CNTs beams cannot be simulated by the

classical models[13]. Therefore, some advanced continuum elastic models are established to study the mechanical behaviors of
the CNTs beams including strain gradient models[13,14],couple stress models[1517], and nonlocal stress models[1825].
Nonlocal stress is a kind of effective model which is sensitive to the nano scale (also referred to as nonlocal) effects of CNTs.
Thus great number of articles about analyses for static and dynamical behaviors of the CNTs beams based on the nonlocal models
are published[1825]. In these studies, the dynamical analysis of the fluid-filled CNTs beam is one of the most attractive topics.
Lee and Chang[24]applied the nonlocal EulerBernoulli beam model to analyze the nano scale effects on the natural frequency
and mode shape for free vibration of the fluid-filled SWCNT beam. Their results show that the frequency and mode shape are
obviously influent by the nano scale effects. Narendar[25]investigated the terahertz wave characteristics of a fluid-filled SWCNT
beam based on the nonlocal Timoshenko beam model. The influences of the nano scale effects and fluid density on the flexural
and shear wave propagations were studied when the fluid velocity is at 1000 m/s.
Though the nonlocal models can simulate the nano scale effects on the mechanical behaviors of a CNTs beam, some
contradictory predictions and surprising conclusions based on the nonlocal models are induced. For example, the bendingbehaviors of a cantilever CNTs beam with a point loading at the free end are not affected by the nano scale effects[19]and on the
nonlocal beam models. This means the bending behaviors of the cantilever CNTs beam are completely same to a classical beam
when the point loading is added. Another inaccurate factor is that all the nonlocal models predict stiffness decreasing due to the
nano scale effects, which is contradict with the results of experiment and MD simulation [20]. Reasons for these unsatisfied
results are that the nonlocal models used are formulated by directly extending the classical beam models without rigorous
verification, and hence certain very important higher-order nonlocal terms have been inadvertently neglected[26]. For instance,
the nonlocal bending moment of a CNTs beam based on nonlocally constitutive relation is directly used in the classical beam
models without any modification. Thus, the nonlocal effects only on the bending moment are considered, instead of the governing
equations and boundary conditions being neglected [26]. Generally, these nonlocal models which are obtained by directly
extending the classical models are called as partially nonlocal models (PN).
Lim and his colleagues established an analytically nonlocal model (AN) according to the variation principle [2632]. The
new nonlocal governing equations and boundary conditions containing high-order nonlocal terms were obtained in their
work. The mechanical behaviors of CNTs beams including bending, buckling, vibration and wave propagation based on theAN models were confirmed more reasonable than the PN models. The unsatisfied problems in the PN models mentioned
above were solved with the AN models according to Lims studies[2632]. However, the applications of the AN models are
limited because of the complicated calculation.
In this paper, an analytically nonlocal EulerBernoulli beam model (ANE) is derived and employed to analyze the
characteristics of the wave propagation in a fluid-filled SWCNT beam. Using the novel ANE model for a CNTs beam, the
influences of the fluid and the nano scale effects on the wave propagating characters are studied in details.
2. ANE model for fluid-filled SWCNT beam
In the nonlocal continuum elastic theory, the stress at a material point is considered to not only depend on the strain at
this point, but also on all other points in a domain near to this point [18]. So, the constitutive relation is stated as

However, as discussed above, the PN models are not accurately enough to predict the nonlocal effects
of the SWCNT beam[1825]. Thus the ANE model is necessary to analyze the fluid-filled SWCNT beam. According to the

By comparing Eq. (24) with Eq. (10), it is obvious that the bending moment Mxin the PNE model is replaced with the
effective moment Mef. Moreover it is worthy to note that for the ANE models without fluid filling, the replacing relation
fails to directly apply to the nonlocal field [29]. In other words, the nonlocal bending moment Mx does not meet the
nonlocal replacing relation. Eqs. (24) and (10) are returned to the classical beam models when e0a-0[33].
Substituting Eq. (22) into Eq. (24) and omitting the higher-order terms O((e0a)6), the governing equation of the fluid-

3. Results and discussions
The material and geometry parameters of the SWCNT beam and the fluid used are taken as E1 TPa,I1.78 1038 m4, Af3.0 1019 m2, rf1 103 kg m3, Ac3.63 1019 m2, rc2.27 103 kg m3, a0.142 nm(CC bond length).
According to Eqs. (27) and (31), the spectrum relation of Re(o) via the wavenumber k for the fluid-filled SWCNT beamis shown inFig. 2when the fluid velocity is taken as U300 m/s and the nanoscale parameter of the beam material ase0a0.05, 0.1, and 0.2 nm. The letter Ein Fig. 2denotes the solutions based on the classical EulerBernoulli beam modelwithout nonlocal effects. As illustrated inFig. 2, the solutions of the angular frequencies on the ANE model are higher than
those on the PNE model at the low wavenumber area. Therefore, the ANE model predicts higher stiffness for the fluid-filled
SWCNT beam than the PNE model does. It is first time to confirm this stiffness enhancement effects for the fluid-filledSWCNT beam on the ANE model, even though the similar results haves already obtained for the SWCNT beam without
fluid filling [29]. However, the angular frequency predictions on the ANE model indicated a sharp decrease when the
wavenumber is over a critical value. For the parameter e0a0.05, 0.1, and 0.2 nm, the critical wavenumbers are 15.5, 7.5,and 3.4 109 m1, respectively. The physical reason for the angular frequency decreasing is that the nonlocal effectscontribute an additional damping of the wave propagation. Obviously, the wave length becomes smaller as the
wavenumber increases. Thus, if the nonlocal effects domain in Eq. (1a) is larger than the size of one wave length, the
characteristics of the wave propagation have a significant decaying change. In this case, the kinetic energy of the wave
propagation is exhausted due to the nonlocal effects and the propagating frequency decreases rapidly. A similar
phenomenon is confirmed for the wave propagation in a SWCNT beam without fluid filling [29]. However, the nonlocal
effects based on the PNE model is not to induce the rapid decaying for the wave propagation when the propagating
frequency is at the high wavenumber area as shown inFig. 2. Another case is that the classical EulerBernoulli beam model
does not contribute any damping to the wave propagation because the nonlocal effects are exclusive. In fact, the imaginary
parts based on the PNE and the classical EulerBernoulli beam models are zero for any value of wavenumber, which meansthere is no a damping supply in these two models. Therefore, the ANE model predicts stronger nonlocal effects on the wave
propagation behaviors of the fluid-filled SWCNT beam.
Figs. 3 and 4illustrate, respectively, the real and imaginary parts as functions of the motion velocity of the fluid within
the SWCNT beam for wavenumber k 1 109 m1. FromFig. 3,the angular frequency decreases with the increase of thefluid velocity on the PNE model when the fluid velocity Uo1100 m/s. In contrary, the angular frequency on the ANE model
increases first, and then decreases sharply to zero when the fluid velocity Uo1100 m/s. The results show that these two
models contribute the different influences on the stiffness of the SWCNT beam. From previous analysis, the nonlocal
effects on the ANE model lead to the stiffness enhancement of the SWCNT beam, which increases the value of the angular
frequency. However, the nonlocal effects on the PNE model decrease the stiffness of the SWCNT beam. Thus, as the

model shows a reversed case. When the fluid velocity U41100 m/s, the angular frequency becomes a conjugate complex

velocityU41100 m/s. FromFig. 4, it is obvious that the propagation decayings on the ANE and PNE models increase with
the fluid velocity rising. However, the ANE model is stronger since the value of the imaginary part increases much fasterthan the PNE model. The solutions on the classical beam model are placed between those on the ANE and PNE models.

Fig. 5 presents the Argand diagrams of the SWCNT beam when wavenumber k1 109 m1 and the fluid velocityvaries from 1000 m/s to 3000 m/s. The plots based on the ANE and PNE models with the different values ofe0acoincide
nearly together. Thus it is clear that the Argand diagrams of the two models are insensitive to the nonlocal effects. Thedivergence points of the Argand diagrams are point A for the ANE model and point P for the PNE and E models,

respectively, when the real part takes 2.2 THz and 1.6 THz. Moreover, the values of the imaginary parts for all the three
models increase with the real parts rising, which confirms that the damping of the wave propagation goes up with the fluid
velocity increasing for two models.
Figs. 6 and 7 indicate the real and imaginary parts as functions of the nanocsale parameter e0a with wavenumber
k1 109 m1. First, when e0ao0.45 nm, the angular frequency takes a pure real number. In Fig. 6, the real part on theANE model increases when the fluid velocity varies from 100 m/s to 500 m/s, while the PNE solution decreases in the same
condition. The reason is that the stiffness enhancement for the ANE model and the stiffness decline for the PNE model. It is
similar with the case inFig. 3when the fluid velocity Uo1100 m/s. The real parts on the ANE and PNE models indicatedifferent tendencies with the nanoscale parameters. For the ANE model, the frequency increases first and then decreases
sharply whene0a40.25 nm. From previous analysis, the stiffness enhancement of the nonlocal effects on the ANE model
increases the frequency of the propagation. However, the nonlocal domain in Eq. (1a) becomes larger as the nanoscale
parameter e0a increases. If the nonlocal domain is larger than the size of one wave length, the wave cannot propagate
through and a sharp decaying occurs. Thus, the angular frequency decreases rapidly when e0a40.25 nm for the ANE
model. This phenomenon fails to be predicted with the PNE model.
InFig. 7, the imaginary parts increase with the nanoscale parameter increasing when e0a40.42 nm for the ANE model
and e0a40.5 for the PNE model. Thus e0a0.42 nm and e0a0.5 nm are the divergence points for the two models,respectively. According to the information, these two models have the same predictions of the wave decaying when the
nanosclae parameter is high enough. However, the decaying on the ANE model is much stronger than that on the PNE
model, which is similar with the case in Fig. 4. Therefore, it is confirmed that the ANE model predicts stronger nonlocal
effects on the wave propagation behaviors of the fluid-filled SWCNT beam.

andthe nanosclae parameter e0a varies from 0 to 1 nm. From Fig. 8, it is obvious that the plots on the PNE model with the

different values of the fluid velocity are close to each other than the plots on the ANE model, because the ANE model is
more sensitive to the varying fluid velocity. When the nanoscale parameter increases from 0 to 0.42 nm, only the real partexists and the value decreases to 0 from 7 for the ANE model. As the nanoscale parameter increases from 0.42 nm to 1 nm,
the value of the angular frequency becomes a complex number and the divergence occurs on the ANE model as shown in
Fig. 8(b). Thus the divergence point are e0a0.42 nm for the ANE model. Reason for the divergence is that the highnonlocal effects contribute a big damping when e0a40.42 nm. The PNE model predicts similar solutions when the
divergence point is e0a0.5 nm. Therefore, it is different fromFig. 5that the divergence point on the ANE model occursbefore. It is similar with Fig. 5 that the imaginary part increases with the real part, which means the damping of the
propagation is enhanced with increasing nanoscale parameter. It confirms once again that the ANE model predicts more
nonlocal effects, and it implies that more damping is used in the ANE model.
4. Conclusions
Based on the nonlocal continuum elastic theory and variational principle, an analytically nonlocal EulerBernoullibeam model for the wave propagation in a fluid-filled SWCNT beam is established. Compared with the partially nonlocal

EulerBernoulli beam model used previously, the analytically nonlocal model suggested in the present study can predict
the effects of the stiffness enhancement and the wave propagation decaying at the high wavenumber region, while the
partially nonlocal model fails to. Furthermore, the analytically nonlocal model has much stronger nonlocal effects on the
propagation of the wave. When the fluid velocity is high enough, the fluid-filled SWCNT beam on the analytically nonlocal
model is less sensitive to the nonlocal effects.

Appendix A. Analysis of other boundary conditions
The boundary condition terms in Eqs. (21) and (23) contain the high-order derivatives ofMx and w. Eq. (23) is usable
only when all these high-order boundary conditions in Eq. (21) are satisfied. The boundary conditions for simply
supported, clamped and free cases are discussed as follows.
(1) For simply supported boundary
Mx is replaced with Mefin Eq. (21), the simply supported boundary conditions are derived as
Mef9x0,L Mx2X1n1
e0a2nM/2nSx" #
x0,L 0, w9
x0,L 0 (A1)
Furthermore, the simply supported case yields
M/1Sx 2X1n1
e0a2nM/2n 1Sx" #
x0,LM/1Sef 9x0,La0, w/1Sa0 (A2)
Moreover, all the equations become the classical beam model when e0a0. Thus, it yieldsMef9x0,LEIw/2S9x0,L 0 (A3)
Eqs. (A1)(A3), and (23) are met in the case
M/2nSef
9x0,L 0, n41 (A4)
Therefore, the simply supported boundary conditions are expressed as
w9x0,Lw/2S9x0,Lw/4S9x0,L. . .w/2nS9x0,L 0 (A5)
The zero and first order terms have the same forms for the PNE and classical models whenMxis directly replaced with
Mef, but the similar boundary conditions are unavailable. So, the approach of directly replacing Mxis inappropriate in
the boundary conditions.
(2) For clamped boundary
Similar to the simply supported case, the natural boundary conditions for the clamped ends are written asM/1S
ef 9
x0,La0, w9x0,L 0 (A6)
Mef9x0,La0, w/1S9
x0,L 0 (A7)
From Eqs. (21)(23), we yield
M/nSef 9x0,La0 (A8)
w/nS9x0,L 0 (A9)
The boundary conditions of the ANE model for n
0, 1, 2, 3? are stated as
