Geometrical structure, nuclear magnetic resonance (N1,1It) chemical shielding tensors, and chemical shiftsof silicon and carbon nucler are investigated for twn infinite size zigzag and armchair single-walled siliconcarbide nanotabes (SiCNTs). Geometrical structures of SieNTs, Sit bonds and bond angles of St and Cvertices in both zigzag and armchair nanotubes, Indicate that bond lengths are appr...

In this article, thermo-elastic-behavior of a thick-walled cylinder made from a polystyrene nanocomposite reinforced with functionally graded (FG) single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) was carried out in radial direction while subjected to a steady state thermal field. The SWCNTs were assumed aligned, straight with infinite length and a uniform layout. Two types of variations in the volume fr...

Energy absorber systems like metallic dampers for controlling the structural vibrations due to earthquake have witnessed considerable development in the past few decades. Also there are some studies on the energy absorption of thin-walled tubes due to impact load. Thin-walled tubes have a large deformation capacity and are suitable energy absorbers in the structure during an earthquake provided...

Nucleation process of single-walled carbon nanotubes by the catalytic chemical vapor deposition method is studied by classical molecular dynamics simulation. We start the calculation with randomly distributed carbon-source molecules and a nickel cluster to investigate the metal-catalyzed growth of a cap-structure of a nanotube. When the catalytic cluster reaches saturation with carbon atoms, he...

The analysis of the structure and chemical state polyaniline/multi-walled carbon nanotube interface layer was carried out using both methods Near Edge X-Ray Absorption Fine Structure Photoelectron Spectroscopy. An photoelectron spectra showed an increase in content covalently bound chlorine, which may be due to functionalization nanotubes during polymer synthesis. spectrum shows two states chlo...

The structure and transport properties of pit membranes at the interface between the metaxylem and xylem parenchyma cells and the possible role of these pit membranes in solute transfer to the phloem were investigated. Electron microscopy revealed a fibrillar, almost tubular matrix within the pit membrane structure between the xylem vessels and xylem parenchyma of leaf blade bundles in rice (Or...

In this paper, acoustic radiation response of thin-walled box with particle dampers is predicted. First, the effect of the collisions and friction between the granular inter-particles is interpreted as an equivalent nonlinear viscous damping based on multiphase flow theory of gas-particle. Then the contribution of particle damper is estimated as an equivalent mass-damper system. And the acousti...

A new method of theoretical modelling of polyhedral single-walled nanotubes based on the consolidation of walls in the rolled-up multi-walled nanotubes is proposed. Molecular mechanics and ab initio quantum mechanics methods are applied to investigate the merging of walls in nanotubes constructed from the different phases of titania. The combination of two methods allows us to simulate the stru...
