Abstract: micro-cantilever sandwich beams in fluids was studied utilizing the modified couple stress theory and the scale distribution theory (MCST and SDT). Four types of porosity distributions were defined; the uniform distribution of pores was defined as U-type, while O-type, V-type and X-type represented non-uniform distributions of pores. The material properties of different porous sandwich beams were calculated. The properties of the micro-cantilever sandwich beams were adjusted to account for scale effects according to MCST. With the fluid driving force taken into consideration, the amplitude-frequency response, and resonant frequencies of the FGM sandwich beams in three different fluids were calculated using the Euler-Bernoulli beam theory. The computational studies showed that the presence of gradient factor p and the pores in the micro-cantilever sandwich beams affect the temperature field distribution and amplitude-frequency response in fluids. Increasing gradient factor p leads to a more obvious thermal concentration of the one-dimensional temperature field and migrates the resonance peaks to lower frequencies. In contrast to the uniform distribution type, the non-uniformly distributed pores also cause a decrease in the resonance frequency.
