Multiscale Mass-Spring Model for High-Rate Compression of Vertically Aligned Carbon Nanotube Foams
We present a one-dimensional, multiscale mass-spring model to describe the response of vertically aligned carbon nanotube (VACNT) foams subjected to uniaxial, high-rate compressive deformations. The model uses mesoscopic dissipative spring elements composed of a lower level chain of asymmetric, bilateral, bistable elastic springs to describe the experimentally observed deformation-dependent str...
متن کاملMultiscale mass-spring models of carbon nanotube foams
This article is concerned with the mechanical properties of dense, vertically aligned carbon nanotube foams subject to one-dimensional compressive loading. We develop a discrete model directly inspired by the micromechanical response reported experimentally for CNT foams, where infinitesimal portions of the tubes are represented by collections of uniform bi-stable springs. Under cyclic loading,...
متن کاملHigh density, vertically-aligned carbon nanotube membranes.
A method is presented to prepare high-density, vertically aligned carbon nanotube (VA-CNT) membranes. The CNT arrays were prepared by chemical vapor deposition (CVD), and the arrays were collapsed into dense membranes by capillary-forces due to solvent evaporation. The average space between the CNTs after shrinkage was approximately 3 nm, which is comparable to the pore size of the CNTs. Thus, ...
متن کاملHigh-rate low-temperature growth of vertically aligned carbon nanotubes.
We report the low-temperature growth of vertically aligned carbon nanotubes (CNTs) at high growth rates by a photo-thermal chemical vapour deposition (PTCVD) technique using a Ti/Fe bilayer film as the catalyst. The bulk growth temperature of the substrate is as low as 370 °C and the growth rate is up to 1.3 µm min(-1), at least eight times faster than the values reported by traditional thermal...
متن کاملVertically aligned pearl-like carbon nanotube arrays for fiber spinning.
Due to their unique structure and physical properties and numerous potential applications, carbon nanotubes have been extensively studied recently and are expected to attract more attention in the future.1 Morphology control of carbon nanotubes represents one of the most explored directions. Except for the normal linear structure, nanotubes with morphologies of ring,2 rocket,2 branch,3 cone,4 b...
