Abstract
    This work is the first of its kind to integrate Mindlin's theory with analytical methods in order to produce an exact solution to a specific vibration issue as well as a bending problem involving a nanoplate that is supported by a viscoelastic foundation. The plate is exposed to the simultaneous effects of a compressive load in the plate plane and a force operating perpendicular to the plane of the nanoplate. In addition, the flexoelecity effect is included into the plate. The strain gradient component is taken into consideration while calculating the plate equilibrium equation using the nonlocal theory and Hamilton's principle. The free vibration and static responses of the nanoplate seem to be both real and imaginary components because of the appearance of the viscoelastic drag coefficient of the viscoelastic foundation. This study also shows that when analyzing the mechanical response for nanostructure, taking into account the flexoelectricity effect and the influence of the nonlocal parameter, the results will be completely different from the case in which this parameter is ignored. This indicates that it is vital to take into consideration the effects of nonlocal parameters on the nanosheet structure while also taking into consideration the effect of flexoelectricity.
