“…In the past years, a number of theoretical studies have been focused on understanding the responses of fluid-loaded nanotubes/microtubes (Dai, Wang, & Ni, 2014;Ke & Wang, 2010;Kuang, He, Chen, & Li, 2009;Lee & Chang, 2008;Liang & Su, 2013;Tang, Ni, Wang, Luo, & Wang, 2014;Wang, Guo, & Hu, 2009;Wang, Liu, Ni, & Wu, 2013;Wang & Ni, 2008;Yan, Wang, & Zhang, 2010;Yang, Jia, Yang, & Fang, 2014;Yoon, Ru, & Mioduchowski, 2006). The earliest research studies of the vibrations of fluid-conveying nanotubes were based on linear analyses without considering possible nonlinear sources.…”
