    ABSTRACT

    A Rigid-fiber-based Boundary Element Model for Strength Simulation of Carbon Nanotube Reinforced Composites

    H. T. Wang1, Z. H. Yao2

    The International Conference on Computational & Experimental Engineering and Sciences, Vol.9, No.2, pp. 95-96, 2009, DOI:10.3970/icces.2009.009.095

    Abstract Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) may provide ultimate enhancement in stiffness and str\discretionary {-}{}{}ength for composite materials. This paper presents a rigid-fiber-based boundary integral equation formulation for the numerical simulation of debonding process and the corresponding strength of CNT reinforced composites. The CNT/matrix interfaces are assumed to fail when the interfacial shear force reaches a prescribed threshold, and the CNTs and matrix are considered to be detached in the failed areas. The matrix with one or several tens of originally well-bonded CNTs is subjected to an incremental tensile load and the effective stress-strain relations are readily obtained… More >
