  4. Abstract:
  5. This article investigates the influence of porosity on free and forced vibration characteristics of a nanoshell reinforced by graphene platelets (GPL). The material properties of piece-wise graphene-reinforced composites (GPLRCs) are assumed to be graded in the thickness direction of a cylindrical nanoshell and estimated using a nanomechanical model. In addition, because of imperfection of the current structure, three kinds of porosity distributions are considered. The nanostructure is modeled using modified strain gradient theory (MSGT) which is a size-dependent theory with three length scale parameters. The novelty of the current study is to consider the effects of porosity, GPLRC and MSGT on dynamic and static behaviors of the nanostructure. Considering three length scale parameters (l 0 =5h, l 1 =3h, l 2 =5h) in MSGT leads to a better agreement with MD simulation in comparison by other theories. Finally, effects of different factors on static and dynamic behaviors of the porous nanostructure are examined in detail
