In this paper, size dependent axisymmetric shell element formulation is developed by using the modified couple stress theory in place of classical continuum theory. Since the study of nanoshells is conducted in nanodimensions, the mechanical properties of nanoshells are size dependent; therefore, taking into consideration the size effect, nonclassical continuum theories are used. In the present work the mass–stiffness matrix for axisymmetric shell element is developed, and by means of size-dependent finite element, the formulation is extended to more precisely account for nanotube vibration. It is shown that the classical axisymmetric shell element can also be defined by setting length scale parameter to zero in the equations. The results show that the rigidity of the nanoshell in the modified couple stress theory is greater than that in classical continuum theory, which leads to the increase in natural frequencies. The findings also indicate that the developed size dependent axisymmetric shell element is able to cover both cylindrical and conical shell elements and is reliable for simulating micro/nanoshells. Using size dependent axisymmetric shell element increases convergence speed and accuracy in addition to reducing the number of the required elements.
