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...

this study investigates natural frequency analysis of an fg composite rectangular plate partially contacting with a bounded fluid. the material properties are assumed to be varying continuously through the thickness direction according to a simple power law distribution in terms of volume fraction of material constituents. wet dynamic transverse displacements of the plate are approximated by a ...

The present work derives the exact analytical solutions for buckling and post-buckling analysis of nano-composite beams reinforced by single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) based on the Euler-Bernoulli beam theory and principle of virtual work. The reinforcements are considered to be aligned in the polymeric matrix either unifor...

Fluorinated graphene/ultra high molecular weight polyethylene (FG/UHMWPE) composites were prepared by ultrasonic dispersion and hot pressing. The mechanical propertys and tribological property of pure UHMWPE and FG/UHMWPE composites were investigated by micro hardness tester and high-speed reciprocating friction tester. The wear volume of the sample was measured by the scanning electron microsc...

We prove a chain rule in the Goodwillie calculus of functors from spectra to spectra. We show that the derivatives of a composite FG at a base object X are given by taking the composition product of the derivatives of F at G(X) with the derivatives of G at X . Our proof also allows us to say something about the Taylor tower of FG (and not just its layers) in terms of the Taylor towers of F and G.

Abstract The present work aims to investigate the buckling performance of sandwich structure functionally graded carbon nanotube-reinforced composite (FG-CNTRC). Through first-order shear deformation theory, an analytical model for FG-CNTRC was established. governing equation prediction obtained through energy method. There solution that can satisfy both boundary conditions. theoretical and met...

The composite metal oxide electrode films were fabricated using ex situ electrodeposition method with further heating treatment at 300°C. The obtained composite metal oxide film had a spherical structure with mass loading from 0.13 to 0.21 mg cm(-2). The structure and elements of the composite was investigated using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and energy dispersive X-ray (EDX). The electrochemical ...

We estimate exponential sums with the Fermat-like quotients fg(n) = gn−1 − 1 n and hg(n) = gn−1 − 1 P (n) , where g and n are positive integers, n is composite, and P (n) is the largest prime factor of n. Clearly, both fg(n) and hg(n) are integers if n is a Fermat pseudoprime to base g, and this is true for all g coprime to n when for any Carmichael number n. On the other hand, our bounds imply...

Thermal stress analysis of a thick-walled cylinder reinforced with functionally graded (FG) single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) is considered in radial direction. Thick-walled cylinder is subjected to a thermal field. Two layouts of variations in the volume fraction of SWCNTs were considered in the composite cylinder along the radius from inner to outer surface, where their names are increm...
