using  principle  of  minimum  total  potential  energy  approach  in conjunction  with  rayleigh-ritz  method,  the  electro-thermo-mechanical  axial  buckling  behavior  of  piezoelectric  polymeric cylindrical  shell  reinforced  with  double-walled  boron-nitride nanotube  (dwbnnt)  is  investigated. coupling  between  electrical and mechanical  fields  are  considered  according  to  a  re...

In the present article, buckling analysis of functionally graded annular thin and moderately thick plates under mechanical and thermal loads is investigated. The equilibrium and stability equations of the plate are obtained based on both classical and first order shear deformation plate theories. By using an analytical method, the coupled stability equations are converted to independent equatio...

Thermal buckling behavior of functionally graded Euler-Bernoulli beams in thermal conditions is investigated analytically. The beam with material and thermal properties dependent on the temperature and position is considered. Based on the transformed-section method, the functionally graded beam is considered as an equivalent homogeneous Euler-Bernoulli beam with an effective bending rigidity un...

This paper presents a molecular dynamics (MD) study on the thermally induced buckling of pre-compressed carbon nanotubes (CNTs) using AIREBO interatomic potential. CNTs are compressed at a certain ratio of their critical buckling strain and then undergo a uniform temperature rise. In order to evaluate the chirality effects, armchair and zigzag CNTs are investigated. The results demonstrate that...

This work concerns the critical buckling temperature of functionally graded rectangular thin plates; the properties of functionally graded material vary continuously in accordance with the power law of thickness z. Closed form solutions for the critical thermal parameter are obtained for the plate with the following boundary condition combinations: simply supported, clamped and guided edges, un...

ANALYTICAL AND EXPERIMENTAL STUDY OF INVESTMENT CASTING WITH LASER STEREOLITHOGRAPHY MODELS by Wen-Long Yao This dissertation presents an analytical and experimental investigation of ceramic shell cracking during the burnout process in investment casting with internally webbed laser stereolithography (SLA) patterns. Included in the consideration are the cracking temperature of the ceramic shell...

Molecular dynamics simulations are performed to investigate the buckling properties of [100]-, [110]-, [111]-, and [112]-oriented single-crystalline germanium nanowires under uniaxial compression. The effects of simulation temperature, strain rate, and wire length on the buckling behaviour are investigated. The simulation results indicate that critical load clearly decreases with increasing tem...
