The boundary conditions are described by the two elastic torsional springs at the ends. The distribution of functionally graded material is considered using a power-law rule. The systems of equations of the mechanical response of nanorods subjected to deformable boundary conditions are achieved by using the modified couple stress theory (MCST) and taking the effects of torsional springs into account. The idea of the study is to construct an eigen value problem involving the torsional spring parameters with small scale parameter and functionally graded index. This article investigates the size dependent free torsional vibration based on the MCST of functionally graded nano/micro rods with deformable boundary conditions using a Fourier sine series solution for the first time. The eigen value problem is constructed using the Stokes' transform to deformable boundary conditions and also the convergence and accuracy of the present methodology are discussed in various numerical examples. The small size coefficient influence on the free torsional vibration characteristics is studied from the point of different parameters for both deformable and rigid boundary conditions. It shows that the torsional vibrational response of functionally graded nanorods are effected by geometry, small size effects, boundary conditions and material composition. Furthermore, for all deformable boundary conditions in the event of nano-sized FG nanorods, the incrementing of the small size parameters leads to increas the torsional frequencies.enFree-vibration analysisCarbon nanotubesNonlocal elasticityAxial vibrationLongitudinal vibrationBuckling analysisLoad-transferNanobeamsDeformationInstabilityFg nanorodsFourier sine seriesModified couple stress theoryStokes' transformationVibration analysisScience & technologyTechnologyNanoscience & nanotechnologyMaterials science, multidisciplinaryScience & technology - other topicsMaterials scienceArticle00080777040000346748212510.12989/anr.2022.12.5.467
