The present study examines the vibrations in micro- and nano-piezothermoelastic beams with voids. In this work, the modified couple stress theory is employed to generate closed-form formulas for deflection, volume fraction, electric potential and temperature distribution. The effects of voids, modified couple stress, beam dimensions and electric potential on energy dissipation (thermoelastic damping) are examined for beams under various boundary conditions. We have established analytical formulas for frequency shift, attenuation and thermoelastic damping. MATLAB software is used to get numerical results and exhibit them visually.
