This research develops thermo-elastic analysis of a functionally graded cylinder under thermo-mechanical loadings. Heat conduction equation in cylindrical coordinate system is solved. Thermal conductivity coefficient is graded along the radial direction. By considering a symmetric distribution of temperature, loading and boundary conditions, strain-displacement and stress-strain relations can b...

nanocomposites made of carbon nanotube (cnt) bundles have attracted researchers’ attention due to their unusual properties such as: light weight, flexibility and stiffness.  in this paper, the effects of straight and rope-shaped bundles on nanocomposite effective mechanical properties are investigated.  first, fea models are created consisting of cnts with different shapes of straight and rope-...

this research was conducted to study the effects of styrene and methyl methacrylate cell lumen monomers on the mechanical properties and decay resistance of beech wood. mechanical and decay resistance test samples were prepared according to astm d143-94 and din en113 standards and impregnated with five concentration monomer solution 0, 40, 60, 80 and 100 percent using bethell method. treated sa...
