Short fibers are randomly distributed or aligned in composite nanorods. Methods Nonlocal elasticity theory has been employed in the analysis. In addition to analytical solution of axial vibration problem of composite nanorods, finite element method is carried out to derive the natural frequencies for general boundary conditions. A two-noded rod finite element is used in the vibration problem. Results The natural frequencies of composite nanorods predicted by the present analytical model are verified with the developed finite element solution for general boundary conditions. In addition, the natural frequencies are obtained for the viscously damped case of composite nanorods. Conclusion The present study would be useful for the dynamic analyses of nanocomposite structures.en10.1007/s42417-022-00643-4info:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessComposite NanorodsVibrationViscously DampedNonlocal ElasticityFinite-Element MethodNonlocal ElasticityCarbon NanotubesNonuniformDynamicsGrapheneMicroArticle11313271341Q2WOS:0008309571000012-s2.0-85158862608Q2
