Abstract Carbon nanotube (CNT)-reinforced composites have ultra-high
elastic moduli, low densities, and fibrous structures. This paper presents the
multi-scale finite element modeling of CNT-reinforced polymer composites
from micro- to macro-scales. The nanocomposites were modeled using representative volume elements (RVEs), and finite element code was written to simulate the modeling and loading procedure and obtain equivalent mechanical
properties of the RVEs with various volume fractions of CNTs, which can be
used directly in the follow-up simulation studies on the macroscopic model of
CNT-reinforced nanocomposites. When using the programming to simulate
the deformation and fracture process of the… More >
