in this study, forced-vibration analysis of a coupled system of single layered graphene sheets (slgss) subjected to the moving nano-particle is carried out based on nonlocal elasticity theory of orthotropic plate. two slgss are coupled with elastic medium which is simulated by pasternak and visco-pasternak models. using hamilton’s principle, governing differential equations of motion are derive...

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...

Introduction: The use of zinc supplements can decrease somatic and visceral pains. Exercise also increases the pain tolerance. In recent years, production and use of nano metal particles such as nano ZnO for pharmaceutical, hygienic and industrial purposes is rapidly increasing, while studies about its effects on human health are limited. The aim of the present study was to compare the effec...

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...

Most spider threads are on the micrometre and sub-micrometre scale. Yet, there are some spiders that spin true nano-scale fibres such as the cribellate orb spider, Uloborus plumipes. Here, we analyse the highly specialized capture silk-spinning system of this spider and compare it with the silk extrusion systems of the more standard spider dragline threads. The cribellar silk extrusion system c...

The microstructure of sputter deposited Ti-rich Ni-Ti thin films doped with Cu in the range 020.4 at.% and annealed for 1 h at 500 and 600°C has been investigated and correlated with the mechanical properties of the films measured by depth-sensing nanoindentation. X-ray diffraction analysis showed the microstructural evolution of Ni-Ti thin films when doped with Cu and annealed at different tem...
