Abstract
The instability of large diameter single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) conveying fluid is investigated based on the molecular mechanics. Using the modal expansion for structural displacements, the governing equations of coupled fluid-structural dynamics of SWCNTs are derived. The natural frequencies and mode shape of the SWCNTs are obtained based on the molecular structural mechanics to account for the effect of chirality and discrete nature of SWCNTs. The results show that the vibrational behavior of large diameter SWCNTs conveying fluid is size dependent, but the effect of chirality is negligible. The obtained results are compared with the equivalent continuum-based model in the...

Abstract
As a first endeavor, the aeroelastic responses of functionally graded carbon nanotube reinforced composite (FG-CNTRC) truncated conical curved panels subjected to aerodynamic load and axial compression are investigated. The nonlinear dynamic equations of FG-CNTRC conical curved panels are derived according to Green's strains and the Novozhilov nonlinear shell theory. The aerodynamic load is estimated in accordance with the quasi-steady Krumhaar's modified supersonic piston theory by taking into account the effect of the panel curvature. Matrix transform method along with the harmonic differential quadrature method (HDQM) are employed to solve the nonlinear equations of motion of the FG-CNTRC...
