This paper deals with an analytical approach to predict the nonlinear buckling behavior of functionally graded graphene-reinforced composite laminated cylindrical shells under axial compressive load surrounded by Pasternak’s elastic foundation in a thermal environment. Piece-wise functionally graded graphene-reinforced, composite layers are sorted with different types of graphene distribution. ...

The effect of central opening on the buckling and nonlinear post-buckling response of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) reinforced micro composite plate embedded in elastic medium is considered in this paper. It is assumed that the system is surrounded by elastic medium, therefore; the influence of Pasternak foundation on buckling and post-buckling behavior are analyzed. In order to derive the basic form...

using  principle  of  minimum  total  potential  energy  approach  in conjunction  with  rayleigh-ritz  method,  the  electro-thermo-mechanical  axial  buckling  behavior  of  piezoelectric  polymeric cylindrical  shell  reinforced  with  double-walled  boron-nitride nanotube  (dwbnnt)  is  investigated. coupling  between  electrical and mechanical  fields  are  considered  according  to  a  re...

in this paper, the modified euler-bernoulli beam model is presented to examine the influence of surface elasticity and residual surface tension on the critical force of axial buckling of nanotubes in the presence of rotary inertia. an explicit solution is derived for the buckling loads of microscaled euler beams considering surface effects. the size-dependent buckling behavior of the nanotube d...

This paper introduces a very simple way to evaluate low stress shearing properties of woven fabrics with the advantages of simplicity and easy accessibility. A 200-gram load is applied on small portion of the sample instead of applying the load overall width of the fabric. As a result, buckling of the fabric will happen and the loading-unloading curve will show the behavior of the fabric during...

This artcile is concerned with thermal buckling and thermal induced free vibration analyses of PCPs (perforated composite plates) with simply supported edges applying a mathematical model. The stiffness and density of PCP are defined locally using Heaviside distribution functions. The governing equations are derived based on CLPT. The present solution gives reasonable results in comparison with...

This paper presents an experimental investigation on vibrations of heated composite plates leading to thermal buckling. The tests were performed considering two main goals: the application Vibration Correlation Technique for detection buckling in plates; and exploration frequency variations before after occurrence a mode jump post-buckling regime. Two test setups used. shared low expansion fram...
