Abstract
In recent years nanostructures have been used in a vast number of applications, so the study of the mechanical
behavior of such structures is therefore important. In this paper, two different constitutive equations including first
order strain gradient and simplified differential non-local are employed to model the buckling behavior of Graphene
nanoplates. Galerkin method is used for solving the equations in order to obtain buckling load. In the part of
numerical studies, influence of non-local parameter on the buckling load are studied.

Keywords: nanoplate, size effect, non-local, strain gradient,
