In this article, the thermal effects on buckling and free vibrational characteristics of functionally graded (FG) size-dependent nanobeams subjected to various types of thermal loading are investigated by presenting a Navier-type solution for the first time. Temperature-dependent material properties of FG nanobeams vary continuously along the thickness according to the power-law form. The small-scale effect is taken into consideration based on Eringen's nonlocal elasticity theory. The nonlocal equations of motion are derived through Hamilton's principle and they are solved applying an analytical solution. It is revealed that the proposed modeling can provide accurate frequency results of the FG nanobeams.
