Mathematic Model
In Fig. 1, a laminated composite microtube with consideration of thermal effects is sketched, where R is the radius of the tube's middle surface and h is the thickness of the microtube. Also, θ is the ply angle of each layer. The material of the microstructure is considered as a laminated composite. nSG model. The fundamental equation can be expressed as follows due to the NSG model 35,[91][92][93] : 2 , t ij , C ijck , and ε ck respectively are the NSG stress, elasticity tensors, and strain. The tensor of NSG stress can be defined as follows 35 : here σ ij and σ ij (1) presents the components of primary and micro size stresses, respectively. The l and µ are constant values standing for the higher-order strain gradient stress and non-invariant influence. Recent experimental researches also demonstrated the calibrated values of the size-dependent factors. The strain tensor could be written as: where, u i stands for the elements of the displacement vector. Due to the Eq. (2), the relation between stress and strain of the mentioned structure would be presented as 94 : www.nature.com/scientificreports www.nature.com/scientificreports/ t t s 1 2 here, K illustrates the kinetic energy, Π s defines strain energy and the work done by forces imposed can be shown as Π w . For a usual micro tube exposed to the high level of temperature situation, it is suggested that the temperature distributes through its thickness. Based on NSG model, Eq. (10) defines the strain energy 35 : www.nature.com/scientificreports www.nature.com/scientificreports/ And also, the strain energy can be defined as the following equation due to the NSG model 35 : The components of the Eq. (11) and governing equations of the laminated microtube are given in the appendix.

Solution Method
One of the best numerical methods which are well known for its accuracy and convergence is the Differential quadrature method (DQM) 95,96 . In this method, it is essential which the numbers of seed should be optimal 19,26,[97][98][99] , which means that due to increasing the computational charge, too many seeds are not applicable, employing the few seeds, however, would lead to a negative impact on the accuracy of the results. At first, this method encounters its users with a limitation in which they could not use too many seeds owning to the algebraic weighting function. Shu 100,101 improve the basic model of DQM with the aid of an explicit formula and decomposition technique so that he renamed the modified method to GDQ. GDQM is employed to find the solutions of governing equations beneath various boundary conditions. The flow chart of the aforementioned solution method is presented in Fig. 2.

Result and Discussion
In this paper, the laminated composite micro tube's material properties are given in Table 1. The most prominent superiority of AS/3501 composite compared with conventional composites are their higher stiffness and strength as well as less density 102 . convergencey. Achieving a higher degree of results accuracy in the GDQ solution method is strongly dependent on adequate grid point numbers. The convergence has been conducted for a range of materials along with various boundary conditions (Clamped-Clamped (C-C), Clamped-Simply (C-S), Simply-Simply (S-S), and Clamped-Free (C-F)). At the same time, this would be observed that the stiffness of microtube under C-C boundary conditions is much more than the microtube under C-F boundary conditions leading to a lower nondimensional critical temperature. According to Fig. 3, twenty grid points are adequate for the convergence of the results presented.
Validation. For validating the results presented in this study with other research papers, Table 2 evaluates outcomes for the micro tube's nondimensional frequency and the outcomes presented by ref. 103 , for different geometrical parameters. Besides, the results disclose that the decrease of nondimensional length scale element Even-layered laminates' comparison. According to Figs. 4-7, for C-C, C-S as well as S-S boundary conditions, increasing the length scale parameter, the figures presented to demonstrate a similar behavior in the all mentioned cases. By rising the element of length scale, the frequency of the microstructure increases. These figures present that, by boosting the even layers' number of the laminated composite, the frequency of the structure increases. Such increases are considerable for C-C boundary conditions and boost the stability of such structures. The difference between Figs. 4-6 are that the dimensionless frequency parameter of the C-C boundary condition is more than C-S and S-S boundary conditions. This is because, in the case of the C-C boundary condition, the microstructure stability would be enhanced. Also, a new result is presented in the boundary  of length scale parameter, this matter is inverse. Besides, this figure shows that even layers' number effect on the frequency, change in l=0.872 nm. So, for length scale parameter less than 0.872 nm, whenever the composite layers increase, the frequency increases as well, while for > . l nm 0 872 the reverse is true.
Odd-layered laminates' comparison. The dimensionless frequency respect to the length scale factor for various odd layers' numbers of the laminated composite and S-S, C-S, C-C along with C-F boundary conditions are depicted in Figs. [8][9][10][11]. It is observed that rising the length scale factor causes the frequency of the system to increase. It is clear from Figs. 8-11, because of increasing stiffness of structure with rising odd layers' number, the variation of frequency with an increase of odd layers' number decreases. As mentioned earlier, the dynamic stability can be enhanced if the length scale factor increases. This enhancement is more significant in the C-C boundary condition. The difference between these figures is that the effects of odd layers' numbers on the vibration of the structure with C-F boundary conditions are much less than in comparison with other boundary conditions. For  www.nature.com/scientificreports www.nature.com/scientificreports/ more comprehensive, the odd layers' number indeed has a positive effect on the frequency of the microtube with C-F boundary condition, but this effect is minimal and can be ignored.
Influences of the nonlocal parameter on the frequency of the laminated composite microstructure. Figures 12-19 demonstrate the impact of the angles' different symmetric laminate, layers number as well as nonlocality on the vibration for different boundary conditions.
Even-layered laminates' comparison. Regarding Figs. 12-15, for C-C, C-S, S-S, and C-F boundary conditions, increasing the nonlocal parameter, all figures demonstrate similar mechanical behavior. By rising the nonlocal parameter, the frequency of the micro-scaled structure drops. These figures present that, by boosting the even layers' number of the laminated composite, the frequency of the microstructure increases. The mentioned increment is considerable for C-C boundary conditions and enhances the stability of the structure. For more comprehensive, increasing even layers' numbers indeed has a positive effect on the frequency but, nonlocality has an inverse influence on the frequency. The difference between Figs. 12-15 is that the dimensionless fundamental vibration mode of the C-C boundary condition is more than other boundary conditions. This means the C-C boundary  www.nature.com/scientificreports www.nature.com/scientificreports/ condition improves the structure stability. As mentioned earlier, increasing layers' numbers have a direct effect on the frequency so, and this positive point is much more significant than when the boundary condition is C-F. As a new result for literature, increasing even layers' numbers play a prominent role in the stability of the C-F laminated composite microtube.
Odd-layered laminates' comparison. The dimensionless frequency versus the nonlocal parameter for different odd layers number of the laminated composite and S-S, C-S, C-C, and C-F boundary conditions are depicted in Figs. 16-19. It can be illustrated that increasing the nonlocal parameter causes the frequency of the system to decreases. It is clear from Figs. 16-19, because of increasing stiffness of structure with rising odd layers' number, the variation of frequency with increasing of odd layers' number increases. As mentioned earlier, by increasing the nonlocal parameter, the dynamic stability is boosted. This enhancement is more significant in the C-C boundary condition. The difference between these figures is that the effects of odd layers' numbers on the frequency of the structure with C-F boundary conditions are much more than in comparison with other boundary conditions.

conclusion
The present research work investigated the stability of a small-scaled laminated composite microtube using the NSG model. The governing motion equations pertained to the laminated composite microtube have been obtained by employing energy methods, and GDQM enabled us to solve the obtained equations. The current investigation evaluated dynamic stability analysis of a laminated composite microtube considering continuum mechanics for the first time. Ultimately, by employing the mentioned continuum theory, this study has been made  www.nature.com/scientificreports www.nature.com/scientificreports/ into the impact of the various kinds of laminated composite microtube parameters on the vibrational characteristics of the microstructure. The most prominent results obtained in the current paper can be found as follows: 1. For C-F boundary condition and every even layers' number, in the lower values of length scale parameter, as this factor increases, the fundamental frequency of the structure decreases but in higher values of length scale factor this matter becomes inverse. 2. For the C-F boundary condition and even layers' number, the impact of the length scale factor on the natural frequency is more changeable. 3. The more the length scale values and the layers' number increase, the more structure's frequency becomes for C-C, C-S as well as S-S boundary conditions and every even and odd layers' number. 4. The odd layers' number has a positive effect on the frequency of the microtube with C-F boundary condition, but this effect is minimal and can be ignored.
