Nonlinear behavior of a nano-scale beam considering length scale-parameter
Hamed Mobki,Morteza Sadeghi,Ghader Rezazadeh,Mohammad Fathalilou,Ali-asghar keyvani-janbahan +4 more
TL;DR: In this article, the fixed points of the aluminum nano-beams have been determined and shown that for a given DC voltage, there is a considerable difference between the calculated fixed points using classic beam theory and modified couple stress theory.

Compressibility of nanofibre-grafted alumina fabric and yarns: Aligned carbon nanotube forests
Stepan Vladimirovitch Lomov,Sunny S. Wicks,Larissa Gorbatikh,Ignace Verpoest,Brian L. Wardle +4 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of CNT growth morphology on the compressibility of carbon fiber textiles has been investigated, and it was shown that the aligned CNT morphology exhibits significant compression hysteresis that was not observed for the case of random CNT forests.

In situ self-sensing of delamination initiation and growth in multi-directional laminates using carbon nanotube interleaves
TL;DR: In this article, the self-sensing capability of carbon nanotube buckypapers (BPs) was investigated in multi-directional laminates, where the inserted BPs were interleaved into these interfaces of the Laminates where delamination tends to happen firstly under tensile loading.
