Abstract:
Iranian researchers studied the mechanical vibrations of structures containing nanocomposites reinforced with carbon nanotubes.
The study is considered as an important step towards the prediction of these structures containing nanocomposites during their practical application, and it can be a guidance how to use these materials in an optimum manner.
Production and development of carbon nanotubes and their applications as the reinforcing agent for polymeric materials have attracted the attention of many researchers. Numerous studies focus on the investigation of the mechanical properties of these nanostructures. However, there is no full understanding of the mechanical properties of nanocomposite structures although the development of these structures is available only when a full understanding of their physical behavior is obtained.
This study presents a two-scaled statistical model to calculate the mechanical properties of nanocomposites reinforced with carbon nanotubes. It also introduces probable functions of the related parameters distribution. In the end, the researchers study the effects of various parameters on the vibrations of nanocomposites structures reinforced with carbon nanotubes.
This research presents a clear strategy and accurate model to analyze this type of composites, which takes into consideration all uncertainties related to these nanocomposites. The presented model gives an accurate prediction of the behavior of nanocomposite structures. In addition, the research team has proposed new approaches for the optimum application of nanomaterials and in order to prevent the waste of materials and costs in the production of nanocomposites.
Results of the research have numerous applications in aerospace industry, automobile manufacturing and mechanical structures. They can also be used in the production of sensors, microorganisms and microscopes at small scales.
Results of the research have been published in Composite Structures, vol. 125, issue 1, 2015, pp. 434-448.
