Abstract A study of smart functionally graded (FG) beams made carbon nanotube (CNT) reinforced composites combined with piezoelectric materials is presented. The material parameters the composite are assumed to vary along their thickness following extended rule mixture. finite element (FE) model was developed for FG nanotube-reinforced beam materials. This tested against previously published st...

Abstract This paper presents an analytical solution for the free vibration behavior of functionally graded carbon nanotube-reinforced composite (FG-CNTRC) doubly curved shallow shells with integrated piezoelectric layers. Here, linear distribution electric potential across thickness layer and five different types nanotube (CNT) distributions through direction are considered. Based on four-varia...

the adsorption of pyrazolone(hpmsp), calix[4]-arene,cu and cs, on carbon nanotube(cnt) atroom temperature has been investigated using spectroscopy.uv spectroscopy indicated that pyrazolone molecules adsorbed on carbon nanotube at roomtemperature in compared calix[4]- arene molecules adsorbed approximately same.the amount ofpyrazolone(hpmsp) adsorb 3.8. le mol/g and amount calix[4]-arene adsorbe...

based on three-dimensional theory of elasticity, static analysis of functionally graded carbon nanotube reinforced composite (fg-cntrc) cylindrical panel subjected to mechanical uniformed load with simply supported boundary conditions is carried out. in the process, stress and displacement fields are expanded according to the fourier series along the axial and circumferential coordinates. from ...

to investigate the interaction and adsorption of drug and carbon nanotube on human serum albumin, three anti-cancer drugs ([pd(phen)(r-gly)]no3, r = methyl, propyl and amyl) with different hydrophobic tails and anticancer activities were selected. these drugs have better anti-tumor activity and less side effects than that known cis-platinum drug. human serum albumin is also important for drug d...

In an attempt to give a brief introduction to carbon nanotube inkjet printing, this review paper discusses the issues that come along with preparing and printing carbon nanotube ink. Carbon nanotube inkjet printing is relatively new, but it has great potential for broad applications in flexible and printable electronics, transparent electrodes, electronic sensors, and so on due to its low cost ...

air pollution has always been a major problem in metropolises. volatile organic compounds are one of the major pollutants that are caused by incomplete combustion of fuels in vehicles and gasoline evaporation, especially in fueling stations. removing these pollutants through traditional methods has always been considered. the paper investigates and studies chemical adsorption behavior of benzen...
