Abstract
Carbon Nanotubes (CNTs) are identified as exceptional in terms of mechanical, electrical, magnetic and optical properties. CNT based composites are also playing a vital role in several fields of science. In this research, four bundles of CNTs with square Representative Volume Element (RVE) is used and ANSYS Multiphysics 11.0 software is used for simulation purpose. In this study, stress distribution of CNT based Aluminum composite is noticed by changing distances of CNT bundles. Stress distribution and transverse Young’s Modulus are investigated by changing different parameters. From this study it can be known how CNT bundles can be formed together to increase or decrease stress. The brief result is that, if the distance of CNT center from reference point is increased then the stress is decreased.
期刊介绍:
TJPRC: Journal of Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering (JNAME) is a peer reviewed journal and it provides a forum for engineers and scientists from a wide range of disciplines to present and discuss various phenomena in the utilization and preservation of ocean environment. Without being limited by the traditional categorization, it is encouraged to present advanced technology development and scientific research, as long as they are aimed for more and better human engagement with ocean environment. Topics include, but not limited to: marine hydrodynamics; structural mechanics; marine propulsion system; design methodology & practice; production technology; system dynamics & control; marine equipment technology; materials science; under-water acoustics; satellite observations; and information technology related to ship and marine systems; ocean energy systems; marine environmental engineering; maritime safety engineering; polar & arctic engineering; coastal & port engineering; aqua-cultural engineering; sub-sea engineering; and specialized water-craft engineering. International Journal of Naval Architecture and Ocean Engineering is published quarterly by the Society of Naval Architects of Korea. In addition to original, full-length, refereed papers, review articles by leading authorities and articulated technical discussions of highly technical interest are also published.
