This study introduces a novel approach by combining finite simulation and an enhanced shear deformation theory to analyze the dynamic behavior of multi-layer composite nanobeams supported by an elastic foundation. The calculation formulae are derived from nonlocal theory in order to account for the impact of size effect. An intriguing aspect of this research is the presence of intricate curved profiles in the two material layers of the beam.

Benign and malignant renal tumors are among the primary culprits, with angiomyolipomas and renal cell carcinomas being the most common among them. Vascular anomalies, infections, ureteral obstructions, and coagulation disorders can also contribute to renal-related bleeding.
