•The vibration behavior of rotating zigzag and chiral FG-SWCNTs was optimized by varying different parameters.•An improved formulation of Love shell theory with WPA is proposed.•The obtained frequency outcomes may provide a basic reference for the preparation of sensor.•Comparison shows the accuracy of proposed approach.
This study deals with the vibration analysis of zigzag and chiral rotating functionally graded carbon nanotubes (FG-CNT) invoking Love's shell theory using wave propagation approach. The frequency equation is formed in the eigenvalue form. It has been shown that with the increase of angular speed, frequencies of forwarding curve decrease and backward curve increase. The phenomena of frequency versus length-and height-to-radius ratios are noted as decreasing and increasing, respectively, for rotating CNTs. The backward and forward frequency curves of clamped-free are lower throughout the computation than the clamped-clamped zigzag and chiral carbon nanotube depending upon the rotating speed. MATLAB software is used to calculate the rotating (backward and forward) frequencies of SWCNTs and the frequency peaks in the present results show excellent stability across a wide range of parameters. Using geometrical and material parameters, the vibration results are given in tabular and graphical form. It is thus desirable to produce more precise estimations of the vibrational frequencies of CNTs. The present results are compared with earlier literature using simply supported boundary conditions and show a good coincidence.
