The present work studies an axisymmetric rotating truncated cone made of functionally graded (FG) porous materials reinforced by graphene platelets (GPLs) under a thermal loading. problem is tackled theoretically based on classical linear thermoelasticity approach. consists layered material with uniform or non-uniform dispersion GPLs in metal matrix open-cell internal pores, whose effective pro...

This study indicates the analysis of functionally graded carbon nanotube reinforced composite (FG-CNTRC) plates using a four-node quadrilateral element related to C0-type Reddy’s third-order shear deformation theory (C0 HSDT) and cell-based smoothed strains (CS) strategy. is surely taking advantages desirable properties theory. Besides, FG-CNTRC with advanced material are changed from bottom to...

Abstract The present work aims to investigate the buckling performance of sandwich structure functionally graded carbon nanotube-reinforced composite (FG-CNTRC). Through first-order shear deformation theory, an analytical model for FG-CNTRC was established. governing equation prediction obtained through energy method. There solution that can satisfy both boundary conditions. theoretical and met...

In this article, thermo-elastic-behavior of a thick-walled cylinder made from a polystyrene nanocomposite reinforced with functionally graded (FG) single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) was carried out in radial direction while subjected to a steady state thermal field. The SWCNTs were assumed aligned, straight with infinite length and a uniform layout. Two types of variations in the volume fr...

Piezoelectric materials possess excellent electromechanical coupling characteristics, which are functional and suitable in structural vibration control. This study investigates the active control of free forced for piezoelectric-integrated functionally graded carbon nanotube reinforced composite (FG-CNTRC) plate using finite element method (FEM). Based on first-order shear deformation theory (F...

Shape memory behavior of crystalline shape memory polyurethane (SPU) reinforced with graphene, which utilizes melting temperature as a shape recovery temperature, was examined with various external actuating stimuli such as direct heating, resistive heating, and infrared (IR) heating. Compatibility of graphene with crystalline SPU was adjusted by altering the structure of the hard segment of th...
