In this study, based on nonlocal differential constitutive relations of Eringen, the first order shear deformation theory of plates (FSDT) is reformulated for vibration of nano-plates considering the initial geometric imperfection. The dynamic analog of the von Kármán nonlinear strain-displacement relations is used to derive equations of motion for the nano-plate. When dealing with nonlineariti...

Fabrication of nano-structured materials has been developed by performing pulsed laser ablation of copper, gold, and silver plates in supercritical CO2. The metal nano-structured particles were successfully generated with allowing the selective generation of clusters. Laser ablation was performed with an excitation wavelength of 532 nm. On the basis of the experimental result, both surface of a...

We describe the fabrication and evaluation of platinum zone plates for 5–12 kV X-ray imaging and focusing. These nano-scale circular periodic structures are fabricated by filling an e-beam generated mold with Pt in an electroplating process. The plating recipe is described. The resulting zone plates, having outer zone widths of 100 and 50 nm, show good uniformity and high aspect ratio. Their di...

In present study, the third-order shear deformation theory has been developed to investigate vibration analysis of FG Nano-plates based on Eringen nonlocal elasticity theory. The materials distribution regarding to the thickness of Nano-plate has been considered based on two different models of power function and exponential function. All equations governing on the vibration of FG Nano-plate ha...

Nonlinear Bending Analysis of Micro/Nano Rectangular and Annular Sector Plates Using a Modified Higher-Order Shear Deformation Theory the Couple Stress

Molecular self-assembly is considered as a promising way to control the manufacture of new materials and their integration into hybrid devices with novel properties. In this work we have synthesized a fulleropyrrolidine bearing a phenylacetylene moiety via the Prato reaction. The characterization of the fulleropyrrolidine by nuclear magnetic resonance and optical spectroscopy is reported, and i...

In this paper, a continuum model based on the nonlocal elasticity theory is developed for vibration analysis of embedded orthotropic circular and elliptical micro/nano-plates. The nano-plate is bounded by a Pasternak foundation. Governing vibration equation of the nonlocal nano-plate is derived using Nonlocal Classical Plate Theory (NCPT). The weighted residual statement and the Galerkin method...

Recently, very thin single crystal scintillator imaging plates became of great interest. Such thin screens are mainly used in micro-CT and nano-CT systems with either micro-focus X-ray tubes or with synchrotron sources. This work deals with a high resolution CCD camera in conjunction with a macro optical system and YAG:Ce single crystal scintillators for low energy X-ray micro-radiography appli...

Microorganisms release a diversity of organic compounds that couple interspecies metabolism, enable communication, or provide benefits to other microbes. Increased knowledge of microbial metabolite production will contribute to understanding of the dynamic microbial world and can potentially lead to new developments in drug discovery, biofuel production, and clinical research. Nanospray desorpt...
