In situ heating transmission electron microscopy observations clearly reveal remarkable interlayer expansion and inner-layer inward contraction in multi-walled boron nitride nanotubes (BNNTs) as the specimen temperature increases. We interpreted the observed inward contraction as being due to the presence of the strong constraints of the outer layers on radial expansion in the tubular structure...

The elastic buckling modes of pultruded I-beams subjected to various loading conditions are studied. The coupling of lateral and distortional buckling, very likely to appear in thin-walled cross-sections, is investigated. Plate theory is used to allow for distortion of the cross-section. Shear effects and bendingt\\isting coupling are accounted for in the analysis, because of their significant ...

25 ABSTRACT: In this work the synthesis of polyaniline/chitosan/functionalized singlewalled carbon nanotube nanocomposite is carried out. For this purpose, single -walled carbon nanotubes were reacted with thionyl chloride to change the hydroxyl to acyl chloride groups for improving the react ability. In other step, aniline monomers and chitosan were polymerized in the presence of Iron (III) Ch...

In the article number 2200357 Tomonaga Ueno, and co-workers report an ultralight single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) aerogel for low-frequency sound absorption, with a hierarchical porous structure high-modulus framework. The Biot–Johnson–Champoux–Allard model indicates significant effect of high elastic modulus SWCNT on absorption.

abstractin this paper, we investigate effect of fe–intermetallic compounds on plastic deformation of closed-cell composite aluminum foam as filler of thin-walled tubes. however, deformation of the aluminum foam-filled thin-walled tubes as crushed-box will be presented in part (ii). composite foams of alsi7sic3 and alsi7sic3-(fe) as closed cell were synthesized by powder metallurgy foaming metho...

This paper presents a finite element analysis on the tensile stiffness of steel bolted connections, which are fabricated from thin-walled cold-formed steel strips and members. This type of bolted connection is usually used to assemble the diagonal bracing member in the light steel structure. Unlike the architectural steel structure, thin walled steel bolted connection cannot be simplified into ...
