Abstract Due to its exceptional mechanical and crashworthiness properties, lightweight nanocomposites have recently been used more in aviation, defense, nautical, automotive applications. Nanocomposite cylinders could be effectively employed this respect as energy‐absorbing components for decreasing the impact energy during vehicle crashes. The current work examined response of nano‐alumina (Al...

the effects of electronic properties of inner and outer surfaces of carbon nano tubes (cnts) on the deactivation of cobalt fischer-tropsch (ft) catalysts were studied. the comparative characterization of the fresh and used catalysts by tem, xrd, tpr, bet and h2 chemisorption showed that cobalt re-oxidation, cobalt-support interactions and sintering are the main sources of catalyst deactivation....

The free vibration of the lattice cylindrical composite shell reinforced with Carbon Nano-tubes (CNTs) was studied in this study. The theoretical formulations are based on the First-order Shear Deformation Theory (FSDT) and then by enforcing the Galerkin method, natural frequencies are obtained. In order to estimate the material properties of the reinforced polymer with nano-tubes, the modified...

in this work at the first step calcium hydroxide nano-particles were synthesized via sono-chemical method at room temperature. at the second step aminated multi-walled carbon nano-tubes was prepared via chemical modification of surfaces of cnt. finally modified-mwcnt and ca(oh)2 were added to paraloid matrix by aid of ultrasonic irradiation. paraloid-modified-mwcnt-ca(oh)2 nanocomposite was use...
