This research is concerned with the analysis of post-buckling of a nano-composite beam reinforced by graphene plateletes (GPLs) having geometrical imperfection. GPLs are uniformly and nonuniformly distributed thorough the thickness direction. Different porosity distributions are considered. The elastic properties of the nanocomposite are obtained by employing Halpin-Tsai micromechanics model. The postbuckling load-deflection relation is obtained by solving the governing equations having cubic nonlinearity applying Galerkin's method needless of any iteration process. New results show the importance of porosity coefficient, porosity distribution, GPL distribution, GPL weight fraction, geometrical imperfection, and foundation parameters on nonlinear buckling behavior of porous nanoscale beams. Specially, porosities and GPL reinforcement have a great impact on postbuckling configuration of both ideal and imperfect nanocomposite beams.
