The study of effect of temperature change and pre stress in plane load on natural frequency of single layered circular graphene sheet fixed on an elastic medium is discussed in this paper. The small scale parameters are taken into consideration to study the impact. This paper deals with classical boundary conditions such as free and guided boundary conditions. The governing differential equations of motion are derived using nonlocal plate model and newton-raphson method of numerical method solving is used to solve the corresponding equations.
