Abstract
Purpose The aim of the present paper is to investigate the nonconservative instability of a single-walled carbon nanotube with an added mass through nonlocal theories. To discretize the governing equations is used the Differential Quadrature (DQ) rules, as introduced by Bellman and Casti. DQ rules have been largely used in engineering and applied sciences. Recently, they were applied to enhance some numerical schemes, such as step-by-step integration schemes and Picard-like numerical schemes. Design/methodology/approach In the present paper the Differential Quadrature (DQ) rules are employed in order to investigate the nonconservative instability of a single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) through nonlocal theories. Findings In order to show the sensitivity of the SWCNT to the values of added mass and the influence of nonlocal parameter on the fundamental frequencies values, some numerical examples have been performed and discussed. Yet, the effect of the different boundary conditions on the instability be...
