In this research, the buckling and bending behaviour of smart nanocomposite plate reinforced by single- walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) under electro-magneto-mechanical loadings is studied. The extended mixture rule approach is used to determine the elastic properties of nanocomposite plate. Equilibrium equations of smart nanocomposite plate are derived using the Hamilton’s principle based on ...

In this article, the nonlocal biaxial buckling load and bending analysis of polymeric piezoelectric nanoplate reinforced by carbon nanotube (CNT) considering the surface stress effect is presented. This plate is subjected to electro-magneto-mechanical loadings. Eshelby-Mori-Tanaka approach is used for defining the piezoelectric nanoplate material properties. Navier’s type solution is employed t...

Electro- and magneto-optical phenomena play key roles in photonic technology enabling light modulators, optical data storage, sensors and numerous spectroscopic techniques. Optical effects, linear and quadratic in external electric and magnetic field are widely known and comprehensively studied. However, optical phenomena that depend on the simultaneous application of external electric and magn...

This work reports on a novel magnetorheological polymer gel with carbon nanotubes and carbonyl iron particles mixed into the physical cross-linked matrix. The resulting composites show unusual nonlinear magneto-electro-mechanical responses. Because of low matrix viscosity, effective conductive paths formed by CNTs were mobile high-performance sensing characteristics observed. In particular, due...

In this article, the time-dependent stress redistribution analysis of magneto-electro-elastic (MEE) thick-walled sphere subjected to mechanical, electrical, magnetic and uniform temperature gradient as well as moisture concentration gradient is presented. Combining constitutive equations of MEE with stress-strain relations as well as strain-displacement relations results in obtaining a differen...

This work presents a study on the computational homogenization of electro-magneto-mechanically coupled problems through Virtual Element Method (VEM).

Nonmechanical beam deflectors, particularly acousto-optical and electro-optical deflectors, are being considered for the access and tracking functions of a magneto-optic recording head. In this report, the suitability of electro-optic deflectors for these functions is explored. For applications requiring modest deflection, electro.optic deflectors require less power and exhibit higher optical t...
