    Abstract
    Due to rapid development of manufacturing process, composite materials with porosity have attracted commercially notices in advanced engineering applications. For this regard, buckling and vibrational characteristics of a porous composite cylindrical nanoshell reinforced with GPLs is investigated in this paper. The material properties of piece-wise graphene-reinforced composites (GPLRC) are assumed to be graded in the thickness direction of a cylindrical nanoshell and are estimated using a nanomechanical model. The novelty of our work is including the effects of porosity and GPLRC on natural frequency, critical axial load and critical temperature of the GPLRC cylindrical nanoshell. The...

    Abstract
    Graphene thin films with very low concentration of oxygen-containing functional groups were produced by reduction of graphene oxide nanosheets (prepared by using a chemical exfoliation) in a reducing environment and using two different heat treatment procedures (called one and two-step heat treatment procedures). The effects of heat treatment procedure and temperature on thickness variation of graphene platelets and also on reduction of the oxygen-containing functional groups of the graphene oxide nanosheets were studied by atomic force microscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. While formation of the thin films composed of single-layer graphene nanosheets with minimum thickness of...
