Existence and uniqueness for fractional differential equations satisfying a general nonlocal initial or boundary condition are proven by means of Schauder's fixed point theorem. The nonlocal condition is given as an integral with respect to a signed measure, and includes the standard initial value condition and multi-point boundary value condition.

In this paper, the problem of static bending of axially functionally graded (AFG) nanobeam is formulated with the local stress(Lσ)- and strain-driven(εD) two-phase local/nonlocal integral models (TPNIMs). The novelty of the present study aims to compare the size-effects of nonlocal integral models on bending deflections of AFG Euler-Bernoulli nano-beams. The integral relation between strain and nonlocal stress components based on two types nonlocal integral models is transformed unitedly and equivalently into differential form with constitutive boundary conditions. Purely LσD- and εD-NIMs would lead to ill-posed mathematical formulation, and Purely εD- and LσD-nonlocal differential models (NDM) may result in inconsistent size-dependent bending responses. The general differential quadrature method is applied to obtain the numerical results for bending deflection and moment of AFG nanobeam subjected to different boundary and loading conditions. The influence of AFG index, nonlocal models, and nonlocal parameters on the bending deflections of AFG Euler-Bernoulli nanobeams is investigated numerically. A consistent softening effects can be obtained for both LσD- and εD-TPNIMs. The results from current work may provide useful guidelines for designing and optimizing AFG Euler-Bernoulli beam based nano instruments.

In this paper, we consider the second-order nonlinear differential equation with the nonlocal boundary conditions. We first reformulate this boundary value problem as a fixed point problem for a Fredholm integral equation operator, and then present a result on the existence and uniqueness of the solution by using the contraction mapping theorem. Furthermore, we establish a sufficient condition on the functions ${\mu}$ and $h_i$, i = 1, 2 that guarantee a unique solution for this nonlocal problem in a Hilbert space. Also, accurate analytic solutions in series forms for this boundary value problems are obtained by the Adomian decomposition method (ADM).

In this paper, we study the existence and uniqueness of solutions for the fractional time-varying delay integrodifferential equation with multi-point multi-term nonlocal and fractional integral boundary conditions by using fixed point theorems. The fractional derivative considered here is in the Caputo sense. Examples are provided to illustrate the results.

In this study, a 2-D finite element formulation in the frame of nonlocal integral elasticity is presented. Subsequently, the bending problem of a nanobeam under different types of loadings and boundary conditions is solved based on classical beam theory and also 3-D elasticity theory using nonlocal finite elements (NL-FEM). The obtained results are compared with the analytical and numerical results of nonlocal differential elasticity. It is concluded that the classical beam theory and the nonlocal differential elasticity can separately lead to significant errors for the problem under consideration as distinct from 3-D elasticity and nonlocal integral elasticity respectively.

In this paper, we consider two types of fractional boundary value problems, one of them is an implicit type and the other will be an integro-differential type with nonlocal integral multi-point boundary conditions in the frame of generalized Hilfer fractional derivatives. The existence and uniqueness results are acquired by applying Krasnoselskii's and Banach's fixed point theorems. Some various numerical examples are provided to illustrate and validate our results. Moreover, we get some results in the literature as a special case of our current results.

In this paper, we present a sufficient condition for the unique existence of solutions for a coupled system of nonlinear fractional Langevin equations with a new class of multipoint and nonlocal integral boundary conditions. We define a 𝓩^*_λ-contraction mapping and present the sufficient condition by identifying the problem with an equivalent fixed point problem in the context of b-metric spaces. Finally, some numerical examples are given to validate our main results.

The state-based peridynamics is considered a nonlocal method in which the equations of motion utilize integral form as opposed to the partial differential equations in the classical continuum mechanics. As a result, the enforcement of boundary conditions in solid mechanics analyses cannot follow the standard way as in a classical continuum theory. In this paper, a new approach for the boundary condition enforcement in the state-based peridynamic formulation is presented. The new method is first formulated based on a convex kernel approximation to restore the Kronecker-delta property on the boundary in 1-D case. The convex kernel approximation is further localized near the boundary to meet the condition that recovers the correct boundary particle forces. The new formulation is extended to the two-dimensional problem and is shown to reserve the conservation of linear momentum and angular momentum. Three numerical benchmarks are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness and accuracy of the proposed approach.

The possibility of energy harvesting as well as controlled vibration of a three-layered beam consisting of two piezoelectric layer and one core layer made of nonpiezoelectric material is investigated using paradox-free local/nonlocal theory. The three-layered nanobeam is resting on an elastic foundation and subjected to a blast load. Also, the core layer is made of Nano-composites reinforced by CNTs and carbon fibers (MHCD). Governing equations as well as boundary conditions are obtained using Hamilton,s principle. The equations discretized by Generalized Differential Quadrature Method (GDQM) and solved by Newmark beta method. In addition, two differential and integral gains are employed for controlling the forced vibration. The size-dependency of the elastic foundation is considered using two-phase elasticity. The effect of elastic foundation, control gains, nonlocal factor, as well as parameters affecting the core material on the forced vibration and energy harvesting is investigated in detail. The equations as well as solution procedure is validated utilizing some compassion studies. This work can be a basis for future studies on energy harvesting and controlled vibration in small scales.
