Magneto-Electro-Thermo nanobeam resting on a nonlinear elastic foundation is presented. This beam is subjected to the external electric voltage and magnetic potential, mechanical potential and temperature change. Also, we added the new material PTZ-5H-COFe2O4. The governing equations and boundary conditions are derived using Hamilton principle. These equations are discretized by using three differential quadrature methods and iterative quadrature technique to determine the natural frequencies and mode shapes. Numerical analysis is introduced to explain the influence of computational characteristics of the proposed schemes on convergence, accuracy and efficiency of the obtained results. The obtained results agreed with the previous analytical and numerical ones. A detailed parametric study is conducted to investigate the influences of different boundary conditions, various composite materials, nonlinear elastic foundation, nonlocal parameter, the length-to-thickness ratio, external electric and magnetic potentials, axial forces, temperature and their effects on the vibration characteristics of Magneto-Electro-Thermo-Elastic nanobeam.

Although solid backfilling materials are featured with obvious nonlinear stress-strain properties, for a long time, they have been usually simplified as linear elastic materials for approximate calculation in mechanical analysis, so it is difficult to accurately reflect their deformation process. Based on test results of solid backfilling materials’ compaction characteristics, this paper provides a solution method to generate their elastic foundation coefficient. One multiparameter elastic foundation has been used to reflect stress-strain characteristics of solid backfilling material. In addition, the paper establishes a thin plate on a nonlinear elastic foundation model by adopting semianalytical and seminumerical method and obtains the relational expression between roof deflection, roof stress, and backfilling material’s compressive deformation. In combination with geological conditions in a specific mine, the paper probes into what influence both backfilling material’s particle size and the initial compaction force that the backfilling material bears could exert on roof subsidence and stress. Finally, the proposed model has been verified with measured data from industrial tests.
