With the development of structural metamaterials and 3D printing technology, the polymorphic shape-memory metamaterials have attracted extensive attention. This study aims to design a structural 3D printed shape-memory metamaterial, of which the epigenetic bi-stability of shape-fixity and recovery behaviors have been achieved by means of the dual matching nominal moduli and geometrical size optimization. Epigenetic bi-stability and dual matching refer to the combination of bi-materials in a specific structure, in response to external stimuli to show adjustable bi-stability. Elastic thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) and viscoelastic polylactic acid (PLA) both are thermally responsive shape-memory polymers (SMPs) and have been employed to fabricate the structural metamaterial, of which the nominal modulus is tailorable owing to the dual matching shape-memory effects (SMEs) of two SMP components. Furthermore, the effects of structural parameters, i.e., width of framework and width of internal support, on the nominal modulus have been investigated for the structural metamaterials, of which the shape-fixity and recovery ratios have been characterized using finite element method (FEM) analyses and experimental measurements. Finally, a constitutive relationship among structural parameters, dual matching SME and nominal modulus has been identified to explore the working principle of epigenetic bi-stability in shape-memory metamaterials. This study provides a design strategy for a shape-memory metamaterial with a post-switchable bi-stability, through dual matching SME and geometrical size optimization.

In order to explain and predict the pseudo-ductility behavior and mechanical properties of [Formula: see text] composite material, a thermodynamic strength theoretical model based on fracture mechanics and thermodynamic method has been established. Compared with other theoretical models, the model proposed in this investigation unifies different cracks and defects based on energy method. Meanwhile, the stress–strain behavior of materials can be obtained with as few parameters as possible. Compared with previous experimental data, the correctness of this theoretical model has been verified. Some key material properties, such as elastic modulus, proportional limit stress (PLS) and yield stress (YS), have been investigated by calculating based on the theoretical model. The effect of the initial matrix porosity and the material properties of the matrix and fiber have been investigated. Results show that PLS and YS are almost not influenced by initial matrix porosity and can be seen as intrinsic parameters. Elastic modulus of the SiC reinforced fiber and the matrix can also affect material properties. Compared with the SiC matrix, PLS of the [Formula: see text] composite material is more sensitive to changes in elastic modulus of the SiC reinforced fiber. However, the improvement of elastic modulus and shear modulus of the [Formula: see text] composite material is much more difficult. For this purpose, the elastic modulus of both the SiC reinforced fiber and the matrix need to be enhanced. Results and conclusions in this investigation can provide guidance for predicting material properties of [Formula: see text] composite material and preparation in industry.

In this work, a study on curved electrostatically-actuated nanobeams incorporating surface energy is presented. The beam is modeled according to Euler–Bernoulli beam theory and the Gurtin–Murdoch theory of surface stress is used to incorporate surface energy effects in beam modeling. To verify the accuracy of the model, its predictions were compared to numerical results reported in previous literature on the static behavior of fixed-fixed and fixed-free nanobeams subjected to DC electrostatic potential. The results of this study demonstrate that the stiffness of both fixed–fixed and fixed-free nanobeams is influenced by surface stress. Furthermore, the findings highlight the significant impact of the electrostatic fringing field on the response of the nanobeams.

In this work, the mixed local/nonlocal elasticity theory is developed for the investigation of the vibration of a circular graphene sheet with a structural defect located in a magnetic field. When graphene is placed in a magnetic field, the Lorentz force is applied to it, which is calculated using Maxwell’s equations. The insufficiency of Eringen’s nonlocal theory (ENT) caused some authors to employ the two-phase theory (TPT) to study nanostructures. Geometric imperfections can happen in the manufacturing process of graphene sheets. Lots of these imperfections can be modeled as a hole. So, in this work, an imperfection is considered as the centric hole. Governing equations, in Newtonian formulation, are extracted in the integrodifferential form. The boundary conditions are selected as clamped at inner and outer edges. To discretize the equation of motion we employ Galerkin’s approach. The solution is validated using a comparison study between the presented results and those that exist in the literature, and the accuracy of the suggested approach is verified. The effectiveness of the mixture parameter, magnetic field, radius of imperfection, and nonlocal parameter is examined on the natural frequency. The results exhibit that an increase in the mixture parameter and magnetic field increases the natural frequency of the graphene sheet.
