Abstract
This article constructs a new model of nonlocal thermoelasticity beam theory with phase-lags considering the thermal conductivity to be variable. A nanobeam subjected to a harmonically varying heat is considered. The nonlocal theories of coupled thermoelasticity and generalized thermoelasticity with one relaxation time can be extracted as limited and special cases of the present model. The effects of the variable thermal conductivity parameter, the nonlocal parameter, the phase-lags and the angular frequency of thermal vibration on the lateral vibration, the temperature, the displacement, and the bending moment of the nanobeam are investigated.
