1. Introduction
Carbon nanotubes (CNT) conveying fluid have become ones ofthe most important structures in nanotechnology. They may beused at micro or nano-levels for fluid storage, fluid transport, drugdelivery, micro-resonator, molecular reactors as well as for manynano-fluidic device applications. In such applications, the dynamiccharacteristics, such as natural frequencies, eigenmodes, stability,critical flow velocity and parametric instability zones are of consid-erable interest. During the last years, a significant amount ofresearch has been elaborated for the dynamic behavior of CNT. Areview paper on vibration of CNT and their composites has beenpublished by Gibson et al. [1]. Lee and Chang [2] studied the vibra-tion analysis of a viscous fluid conveying single walled carbon nan-otube embedded in an elastic medium. Wang [3] proposed thevibration analysis of fluid-conveying nanotubes with considerationof surface effects. Eringen’s nonlocal elasticity theory [4,5] allowsone to account for the small scale effect that is very significantwhen dealing with micro and nanostructures. Reddy [6] studied
the nonlocal theories for bending, buckling and vibration of beams.Duan et al. [7] used microstructured beam to calibrate length scalecoefficient in nonlocal beams. Wang et al. [8] and Zhang et al. [9]proposed the calibration of Eringen’s small length scale coefficientfor initially stressed vibrating nonlocal Euler beams based onmicrostructured beam model. The finite element analysis of forcedvibration for pipe conveying harmonically pulsating fluid has beenstudied by Seo et al. [10]. Hong et al. [11] studied the vibration of asingle-walled carbon nanotube embedded in an elastic mediumunder a moving internal nanoparticle. Mirramezani and Mir-damadi [12] analyzed the effects of nonlocal elasticity and Knud-sen number on fluid–structure interaction in carbon nanotubeconveying fluid. Baohui et al. [13] used the wave method to inves-tigate the free vibration analysis of micropipe conveying fluid.Ghavanloo et al. [14] studied the vibration and instability analysisof carbon nanotubes conveying fluid and resting on a linear vis-coelastic foundation. Wang et al. [15] reported the flexural vibra-tions of microscale pipes conveying fluid by considering the sizeeffects of micro-flow and micro-structure. Wang and Ni [16] pro-posed a reappraisal of the computational modeling of carbon nan-otubes conveying viscous fluid. The thermal mechanical vibrationand instability of a fluid conveying single walled carbon nanotubeembedded in an elastic medium based on nonlocal elasticity theoryhave been analyzed by Chang [17]. Ghannadpour et al. [18] studied

bending, buckling, and vibration problems of nonlocal Euler beamsusing Ritz method. The transverse waves propagating in carbonnanotubes via a higher-order nonlocal beam model is proposedby Huang et al. [19]. Ansari et al. [20] studied the dynamic stabilityof embedded single walled carbon nanotube including thermalenvironment effects. Vibration and dynamic instability analysesof CNT are elaborated in [21–23] and the higher order free vibra-tion of SWCNTs was extensively analyzed in [23]. The dynamic sta-bility of parametrically excited linear resonant beams underperiodic axial force has been recently studied by Jing et al. [24].To the authors’ knowledge, there are no studies in literature onthe dynamic instability of CNT based on complex modes nor onthe dynamic and parametric instabilities interactions of thesestructures. Therefore, numerical and analytical methodologicalapproaches are here proposed, proving simplified models as wellas theoretical and numerical insights into the dynamic and para-metric instabilities of CNT fluid system and on their interactions.
In the present paper, the governing equation of motion is firstderived based on the fluid–tube interaction, the nonlocal theoryand the Euler Bernoulli beams’ model. A numerical procedure basedon the differential quadrature method and multimodal formula-tions have been elaborated for the dynamic and parametric insta-bilities of viscoelastic CNT conveying pulsating and viscoelasticfluid. Frequency and time domains are considered and instabilityanalyses have been performed with respect to the considered influ-encing parameters based on analytical and numerical procedureswith an emphasis on complex modes. The influences of the nonlocalparameter, fluid viscosity, viscoelastic coefficient, foundation of theelastic medium, thermal environment and static and dynamic velo-city effects on the dynamic behaviors of the CNTs-fluid system areanalyzed. Various types of instabilities such as divergence, flutterand principal parametric instabilities as well as their interactionsare analyzed.
2. Mathematical modeling
The flexural vibration of a slender carbon nanotube conveyingfluid and subjected to axial force, thermal loading, fluid flow, andfluid pressure can be modeled based on the Euler–Bernoulli beammodel by the following partial differential equation:
@Q@x¼ mt
@2W@t2 þ Fe þ FT þ Ff þ Fp ð1Þ
where W;Q and mt are the transverse displacement, shear force andmass of the tube per unit length respectively. Fe; FT and Ff are theaxial force, the thermal force and the force per unit of lengthinduced by fluid flow. Fp represents a force due to the axial fluidpressure. The momentum-balance equation for the fluid motionmay be described by the Navier–Stokes equation: [16,25]
qdUdt¼ �rP þ #r2U ð2Þ
in which UðtÞ ¼ Ur;Uh;Uxð Þ is the time dependent fluid velocity inthe cylindrical coordinate system with components in r, h and xdirections. q, P and # are the mass density of the internal fluid,the pressure and the viscosity of the flowing fluid.
The exerted force due to the fluid flow in the nanotube can beobtained from (2). At the point of the contact between the insidetube and internal fluid, their respective velocity and accelerationin the direction of flexural displacement become equal. Theserelationships thus can be written as: [16]
Ur ¼dWdt
ð3Þ
where
dWdt¼ @

Substituting Eq. (3) into Eq. (2) and using Eq. (4) one obtains:

þ #Af Ux@3W@x3 þ

in which mf is the mass of the fluid per unit axial length and Af isthe cross sectional area of the internal fluid respectively.
The axial resultant force due to the thermal loading, FT , and theforce due to the axial pressure exerted by the fluid, Fp, are given by[25]:
FT ¼EAaxTs
ð1� 2tÞ@2W@x2 ; Fp ¼ mf

2W@x2 ð6Þ
in which E, A, L; t;ax and Ts represent the Young modulus, tubecross sectional area, length, Poisson ratio of the CNT, thermalexpansion and the temperature change respectively.
Based on the Euler–Bernoulli beam theory, the transverse shearforce Q and bending moment �M of the viscoelastic tube are givenby [25]:
Q ¼ @�M@x¼ E� c

@t
� �I@3W@x3 ð7Þ
and �M ¼R
zrxxdA
where c is the viscoelastic coefficient of the tube and rxx is its axialstress.
Based on the nonlocal elasticity theory, the following differen-tial constitutive equation for one dimensional case is adopted[4,5,17,21–23].
rxx � ðe0aÞ2 @2rxx
@x2 ¼ Eexx; ð8Þ
where e0a; exx are the nonlocal parameter and the axial strain of thenanotube respectively. Using Eq. (8), the moment �M is obtained bythe following differential equation.
�M � ðe0aÞ2 @2 �M@x2 ¼ EI

Combining Eqs. (1), (5)–(9), the partial differential equation ofmotion for a CNT conveying fluid and subjected to the consideredforces can be written as:

In this paper, a pulsating internal axial flow is considered andthe flow velocity is assumed to be harmonically fluctuating andto have the following form:

periodically varying coefficients. Mathematical formulations basedon numerical and analytical procedures are elaborated.
It should be noted that for accurate investigation of the insta-bility of CNT conveying fluid,the used modal basis has to be care-fully selected. For this aim, the parametric free vibration analysisis first extensively studied using numerical and analytical methodswith respect to the fluid velocity and to the other considered para-meters. Complex eigenmodes and eigenfrequencies are obtained.Based on the obtained eigenmodes and the Galerkin procedure,various modal bases are used for dynamic and parametric insta-bility analyses.
3. Numerical procedure
3.1. Differential quadrature method
For numerical investigations of vibration, dynamic and para-metric instability analyses of the considered CNT-fluid system,the differential quadrature method (DQM) is adopted here.Thismethod, akin to approximate the derivative of a function at anylocation by a linear summation of all the function values along amesh line [26,27]. The procedure DQ application lies in the deter-mination of the weighting coefficients. The continuous solution isapproximated by functional values at discrete points. In the pre-sent paper, the following Chebyshev-Gauss–Lobatto quadraturepoints are used.

Note that the matrices C and K depend on time as well as on someinfluencing physical parameters. Numerical time response can beobtained by numerical methods such as Newmark, h-Wilson,Runge–Kutta, etc. As the matrices K and C depend on the fluid flowvelocity, considered time dependent, various types of instabilitiessuch as divergence, flutter and parametric can occur and thenmay complicate the dynamic response analysis. For the sake ofclarity, these types of instabilities are separately formulated.
3.2. Dynamic instability formulation

Using this vector decomposition, Eq. (18) can be rewritten as:

Coupling Eqs. (20) and (21), one gets:

where KS½ �; MS½ � and CS½ � are ðn� 4Þ � ðn� 4Þ matrices.This frequency dependent relation is rewritten in the following

By solving this eigenvalue problem, eigenmodes and associatedeigenfrequencies can be numerically obtained for various types ofboundary conditions. Based on this numerical procedure, real andcomplex eigenmodes and the associated eigenfrequencies can beobtained with respect to V0, T and to the other relevant physicalparameters. As the Galerkin procedure will be based on theobtained eigenmodes, two distinct cases are considered here.
3.2.1. Case 1: Classical real modal basisIn this case, the free vibration analysis is done by considering
V0 = T = k = a ¼ b = Mr = 0. This will lead to natural frequenciesand real eigenmodes independent from V0, T, k, b and a. These realmodes are classically used in modal vibration analysis of tubesconveying fluid. For example, for simply supported case, the eigen-modes wjðxÞ ¼ sinðjpx=LÞ are classically used by many authors. It

should be noted that the simplified modes can not be used foraccurate prediction of the dynamic instability analysis of CNTand particularly at large fluid velocity. In this simplified real modalbasis, the imaginary parts are disregarded as well as the fluid velo-city effect.
3.2.2. Case 2: General modal basisBy considering all parameters, complex eigenfrequencies and
eigenmodes are resulted. These complex characteristics have beencarefully computed for the considered boundary conditions. Usingthe numerically obtained eigenmodes, Galerkin’s method will beapplied for dynamic and parametric instability analyses.

For more general cases using more eigenmodes and harmonics, ahighly nonlinear algebraic equation f(XÞ = det(G) = 0 will be result-ed and thus has to be numerically solved.
Based on these relationships, the dynamic and parametric insta-bility analyses can be numerically investigated. The effects of theconsidered physical parameters on the divergence, flutter andparametric instability zones as well as the associated time respon-se can be numerically analyzed.

6. Analytical procedure
For the sake of accuracy and comparison, analytical proceduresare elaborated for some simple cases.As various parameters suchas fluid velocity, thermal effect, tube viscoelasticity and fluid velo-city and viscosity are considered, the free dynamic behaviors of theCNT can be affected by all these parameters. To easily handle theeffect of these parameters, it is important to obtain some associat-ed analytical relationships. To this aim, the transverse displace-ment is assumed of the form:
Wðy; sÞ ¼ wðyÞeixs ð31Þ
The complex characteristic equation associated to the main govern-ing Eq. (13), for a static fluid velocity ðg ¼ 0Þ, is given for, wðyÞ ¼ eky,by:
ixaþ1�l2ðV20�TÞ
� k4þ ibV0�2xMrV0l2� �
k3
� V20�T� ibMr�l2ðk�x2Þ
� k2þ2xMrV0kþk�x2¼0 ð32Þ
For distinct solutions of (32), the general solution associated to (13)can be written in the form:
wðyÞ ¼ A1eik1y þ A2eik2y þ A3eik3y þ A4eik4y ð33Þ
where the arbitrary constants Ai are determined by the consideredboundary conditions.
It should to be noted that the resulting frequencies and eigen-modes depend on the considered parameters such as V0, k, a, etcand on the temperature T. This will lead to complex eigenfrequen-cies and eigenmodes that may be extensively changed with respectto these parameters.
For simply supported and clamped CNT, the associated eigen-modes are given by:
ujðyÞ ¼ A1eik1jy þ A2eik2jy þ A3eik3jy þ A4eik4jy ð34Þ
where
A2 ¼ �ðc4j � c1jÞeik3j þ ðc1j � c3jÞeik4j þ ðc3j � c4jÞeik1j
ðc3j � c4jÞeik2j þ ðc4j � c2jÞeik3j þ ðc2j � c3jÞeik4jA1;

ðc3j � c4jÞeik2j þ ðc4j � c2jÞeik3j þ ðc2j � c3jÞeik4jA1;
A4 ¼ �ðA1 þ A2 þ A3Þ
in which cij ¼ kij and cij ¼ k2ij for clamped and simply supported
boundary conditions respectively. The resulting transcendentalequation is thus given by:

ðc1j � c4jÞðc2j � c3jÞ ¼ 0 ð35Þ
It has to be noted that Eqs. (32) and (35) have to be simultaneouslynumerically solved in order to get the frequency and eigenmodes atrequired flow velocity levels. A numerical iterative-incrementalprocedure based on the Newton–Raphson algorithm has beenelaborated for that goal. The real as well as the complex eigenmodescan be obtained based on this semi-analytical methodologicalapproach.

It should be stated that when the modal basis is availableanalytically, the dynamic and parametric instability analyses couldbe investigated based on the same procedures developed in the pre-vious sections.
7. Numerical results and discussion
Let us note that due to the fluid velocity the dynamic instabilitywill occur at increased static velocity V0. This will lead to diver-gence and flutter instabilities. Then, even if the viscosities of thefluid and tube are disregarded, the complex eigenmodes and fre-quencies may occur. This paper will focus on complex eigenmodes

and on the coupling dynamic and parametric instabilities withrespect to static velocity and dynamic fluid pulsation. For the sakeof clarity, the one-mode and two-modes approaches are used forthe analysis. Based on these approaches, the first and second nat-ural frequencies, critical flow velocity and stability regions areobtained. The time responses are computed for various instabilityregions.
For numerical analysis, the following material and geometricalparameters of CNT-fluid system are used. The Young’s modulusof carbon nanotube is assumed to be E = 1TPa with an effectivethickness about h = 0.34 nm. The diameter d, the mass density qc
and the aspect ratio L/d of SWCNT are 1 nm, 2300 kg/m3, and 10respectively. The fluid inside the nanotube is assumed to be thewater with the mass density qf and viscosity # are 1000 kg/m3
and 1.12 � 103 Pa respectively [2]. Two cases of the low and hightemperature are considered. At low and room temperature, thethermal expansion coefficients ax = �1.6e�6 K�1 and at high tem-perature ax = 1.1e�6 K�1.
For comparison and validation of the presented numerical andanalytical methodological approaches numerical results are pre-sented in Tables 1 and 2. The finite difference method (FDM) hasbeen also used and programmed here for numerical comparison.The details of this classical numerical approach have been omittedhere. Numerical results of the three first natural frequencies ofsimply supported and clamped boundary conditions CNT are givenfor various values of V0. Numerical results are obtained based onthe DQM for point numbers N = 7, 10, 15 and on the FDM forN = 15, 50, 100 and compared in Tables 1 and 2. The analyticalresults, obtained based on Eqs. (32) and (35), are also given for
Fig. 18. One-complex mode based parametric instability regions of a clamped CNT with
convergence test. It is demonstrated that the DQM converges for15 points while the finite difference method needs largely morediscretization points (N = 100) to converge.
Complex eigenmodes will be classically induced by the fluidviscosity, the CNT viscoelasticity and particularly by the static fluidvelocity V0. To clarify the fluid viscosity and velocity effects on theCNT vibration behaviors, numerical results of the obtained eigen-modes are presented.
Figs. 1 and 2 present real and imaginary parts of the first modeshape, mass normalized, of a simply supported CNT forV0 ¼ 0;1;2;3;4;5;6;7 as well as the classical simplified mode‘‘sinðpx=LÞ’’. Note that, for these small values of V0, sinðpx=LÞ isgood enough for the real part of the first mode. The imaginary part,neglected by this classical mode, is not zero even for V0 ¼ 0 as thefluid viscosity is considered. At large V0, the shape of the real partchanges and the imaginary part is highly increased as shown inFig. 2. The first mode of a clamped CNT at various values of V0ispresented in Fig. 3. It is demonstrated that for small values of V0;ðV0 ¼ 0;1;2;3;4;5Þ the real part is almost unchanged but there isan imaginary part that is considerably increasing with V0. To showthe effect of V0 on the first modes a large range of values of V0isconsidered and real and imaginary parts of the first, second andthird eigenmodes are presented in Figs. 4–6 for a clamped CNT(b = a = Ts = K = 0). These figures show that there is a transition ofthe real part of the first mode to the second one and that the ima-ginary parts of all modes become very significant when the staticvelocity V0 exceeds a critical value. To show the coalescence behav-ior at a critical fluid velocity V0, the first and second modes are pre-sented in Fig. 7 for clamped case.

The transition from mode to mode and the growing of imagin-ary parts with respect to V0can be explained by the frequency-ve-locity dependence curves giving the dynamic instability behaviorof the CNT-fluid system. This dynamic behavior is investigatedhere based on the one and two-real-mode as well as on the com-plex modes approaches. Fig. 8 demonstrates the divergence andflutter instability types for the considered simply supported andclamped CNT. The real frequency parts decreases with increasingof the flow velocity V0up to the divergence instability (x = 0).The critical values of V0 for the divergence instability associatedto complex-mode are V0= 3.14 for the considered simply supportedCNT and V0 = 6.29 for the clamped CNT (T = 0, a = 0). The criticalvalues of the flutter instability are V0 = 6.38 and V0 = 9.01 for S-Sand C-C CNT respectively.
It should to be stated that a one-real mode approach leads toerroneous results for flutter analysis but good enough for diver-gence detection. The predictions obtained for the dynamic insta-bility analysis based on the two-real-modes and the one-complexmode approaches are very close for simply supported case butleads to different values for the clamped case at large values of V0.
The temperature effect on the dynamic instability of a clampedCNT predicted by a one complex-mode approach is presented inFig. 9 and only small effects are observed.

The effects of the static fluid velocity V0, the viscosity b, the vis-coelastic parameter a, the nonlocal parameter l and the thermalcoefficient effect Ts on real and imaginary parts of the first, secondand third frequencies of cantilever CNTs conveying fluid are pre-sented in Fig. 10. This effect is more significant at higher velocities.
A parametric study with respect to all considered physical andmaterial parameters can be easily done by the presented method-ological approaches.
Figs. 11 and 12 demonstrate the effects of the static fluid velo-city V0, the viscosity b, the viscoelastic parameter a, the nonlocalparameter l and the thermal coefficient effect Ts on the instabilityboundaries in the principal parametric resonance based on theone- real-mode approach. In Fig. 11 the instability areas, originsof parametric instability are reduced with increase in fluid vis-cosity b and the viscoelastic coefficient a. It should be noted thata larger flow velocity V0 leads to a large instability region. InFig. 12, the effects of the nonlocal parameter l and the thermalcoefficient Ts are presented. The parametric resonance regionsmove significantly backwards by increasing the nonlocal para-meter l and slightly upwards by increasing Ts.
The one and two-modes based parametric instability regions ofthe CNT with different values of the static flow velocity V0 of a sim-ply supported and clamped CNT are presented in Figs. 13 and 14

respectively. The influence of the nonlocal parameter on the para-metric frequency is presented in Fig. 13. The difference betweenthe one and two modes predictions instability regions are present-ed in Fig. 15. It is observed that the critical parametric frequencyand dimensionless pulsation amplitude g, associated to bifurca-tions point are increased when two-modes is used. The fluid vis-cosity b effect is demonstrated in Fig. 16. Moreover, comparisonbetween the real and the complex mode approaches are given inFig. 17. It is demonstrated that for fixed V0 the parametric insta-bility regions are shifted to the higher parametric frequency whenthe complex mode are used. For a general representation, Fig. 18shows the parametric instability regions of the clamped CNT inthree dimensions (X, V0, gÞ based the on one-complex-modeapproach the interaction between dynamic and parametric insta-bilities is shown. The evolutions of the parametric instability fre-quencies and the associated bifurcation points for differentviscous parameter b are presented in Fig. 19. These analyses allowdetermining the stability boundaries and zones with respect to thestatic fluid velocity V0 and to the other physical parameters.
To clearly demonstrate the dynamic behaviors in these regions,time responses are presented in Fig. 20 for SS-CNT and in Fig. 21 forCC- CNT based on the one-real mode and two-real modes approach-es. These figures show the time responses associated to various val-ues of X for fixed values of V0. It is observed that the dynamicresponse is very sensitive to the static velocity V0 as well to theparameters g and X. The stability and instability behaviors areclearly demonstrated with respect the parametric instability zones.
8. Conclusion
Vibration, dynamic and parametric instabilities of CNT convey-ing pulsating fluid are analyzed based on the nonlocal elasticity,fluid interaction and Euler–Bernoulli beam theory. A numericalmethodological approach based on the differential quadraturemethod has been formulated and used for numerical solution.For comparisons in some simple cases, a semi analytical procedurehas been also developed. It has been demonstrated that theobtained eigenmodes are complex and the amplitude of their ima-ginary parts, mass normalized, is increasing with V0. For small V0,this amplitude is too small related to the amplitude of the corre-sponding real parts. But, for V0 greater than the critical divergenceand flutter values, the amplitudes of imaginary and real parts ofthe resulting eigenmodes are almost of the same magnitude. Themultimode approach has been formulated based on the numerical-ly computed eigenmodes, for dynamic and parametric instabilities.For simplified models the one-real mode, two-real mode and one-complex mode approaches have been developed for both types ofinstabilities. The inaccuracy of the one-real mode approach isdemonstrated. The influences of the internal fluid velocity, thenonlocal parameter, the viscosity, the viscoelastic coefficient aswell as the thermal effects on the dynamic behaviors and flow-in-duced structural instability of CNTs are studied. Various types ofinstabilities such as divergence, flutter and parametric instabilityand their interactions are investigated.
