Journal ArticleDOI
Multifunctional composites using reinforced laminae with carbon-nanotube forests
Vinod P. Veedu,Anyuan Cao,Xuesong Li,Kougen Ma,Caterina Soldano,Swastik Kar,Pulickel M. Ajayan,Mehrdad N. Ghasemi-Nejhad +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, a 3D composite with carbon-nanotube forests is proposed to improve the in-plane fracture toughness, hardness, delamination resistance, inplane mechanical properties, damping, thermo-elastic behavior, and thermal and electrical conductivities.
Journal ArticleDOI
Super-Compressible Foamlike Carbon Nanotube Films
Anyuan Cao,Anyuan Cao,Anyuan Cao,Pamela L. Dickrell,Pamela L. Dickrell,Pamela L. Dickrell,W. Gregory Sawyer,W. Gregory Sawyer,W. Gregory Sawyer,Mehrdad N. Ghasemi-Nejhad,Mehrdad N. Ghasemi-Nejhad,Mehrdad N. Ghasemi-Nejhad,Pulickel M. Ajayan,Pulickel M. Ajayan,Pulickel M. Ajayan +14 more
TL;DR: It is reported that freestanding films of vertically aligned carbon nanotubes exhibit super-compressible foamlike behavior, and the lightweight, highly resilient nanotube films may be useful as compliant and energy-absorbing coatings.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analytical and numerical techniques to predict carbon nanotubes properties
Alexander L. Kalamkarov,A.V. Georgiades,Srujan Rokkam,Vinod P. Veedu,Mehrdad N. Ghasemi-Nejhad +4 more
TL;DR: In this article, two different approaches for modeling the behavior of carbon nanotubes are presented, one based on homogenization and the other based on finite element models, where the interatomic interactions due to covalent and non-covalent bonds are replaced by beam and spring elements, respectively, in the structural model.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multifunctional brushes made from carbon nanotubes.
Anyuan Cao,Vinod P. Veedu,Xuesong Li,Zhaoling Yao,Mehrdad N. Ghasemi-Nejhad,Pulickel M. Ajayan +5 more
TL;DR: F multifunctional, conductive brushes with carbon nanotube bristles grafted on fibre handles are constructed and demonstrate their several unique tasks such as cleaning of nanoparticles from narrow spaces, coating of the inside of holes, selective chemical adsorption, and as movable electromechanical brush contacts and switches.
Journal ArticleDOI
Super‐Compressible Foamlike Carbon Nanotube Films.
Anyuan Cao,Pamela L. Dickrell,W. Gregory Sawyer,Mehrdad N. Ghasemi-Nejhad,Pulickel M. Ajayan +4 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors report that freestanding films of vertically aligned carbon nanotubes exhibit super-compressible foam-like behavior under compression and can fully unfold to their original length upon load release.
