A computational study on the thioguanine drug interaction with silicon carbide graphyne-like nanosheets
TL;DR: In this paper, density functional theory calculations were performed to explore the interaction properties of 6-Thioguanine (6-TG) with a silicon carbide monolayer (SiCM) as well as noble metal (Au)-decorated SiCM to elaborate on their potential application as electronic sensors.
Mechanical and Electrical Characterization of Hybrid Carbon Nanotube Sheet-Graphene Nanocomposites for Sensing Applications
TL;DR: In this article, carbon nanotube sheet and epoxy nanocomposites with the matrix modified with various contents of coarse and fine graphene nanoplatelets are fabricated and the addition of a secondary filler results in improvements of both electrical and mechanical properties.
Scalable software control of million-element cyber-physical systems using a graphics processing unit
Richard Han,Veljko Krunic +1 more
TL;DR: It will be shown how both control and coordination of the elements can be achieved, while at the same time accounting for the physical limitations of the Cyber-Physical System elements, and the feasibility and scalability of such control algorithms are demonstrated.

Temperature Dependent Electrical Resistivity in Epoxy—Multiwall Carbon Nanotube Nanocomposites
TL;DR: In this article, the electrical behavior and its dependence with temperature between 243 and 353°K were characterized by measuring the direct current (DC) conductivity of epoxy nanocomposites modified by multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs).

Computational study of compressive loading of carbon nanotubes
Yang Yang,William W. Liou +1 more
TL;DR: The unloading post-buckling of CNT demonstrates that even after the occurrence of buckling the CNT can still return to its original state making its use desirable in fields such as synthetic biomaterials, electromagnetic devices, or polymer composites.
