The spread of different material processing technologies has led to the novel methods developed for reinforcing structural members. One these approaches is add carbon nanotubes (CNTs) with distributions through matrix phase composite materials improve its properties. Due superior properties such as lightweight and high values elastic modulus, strain, failure CNTs can be used reinforce structure...

this paper deals with the determination of displacement function and thermal stresses of a finite length isotropic functionally graded hollow cylinder subjected to uniform temperature field. the solution of the governing thermoelastic equation is obtained, as suggested by spencer et al. for anisotropic laminates.  numerical calculations are also carried out for fgm (functionally graded material...
