Abstract
In this research, thermal buckling and forced vibration characteristics of the imperfect composite cylindrical nanoshell reinforced with graphene nanoplatelets (GNP) in thermal environments are presented. Halpin–Tsai nanomechanical model is used to determine the material properties of each layer. The size-dependent effects of GNPRC nanoshell is analyzed using modified couple stress theory. For the first time, in the present study, porous functionally graded multilayer couple stress (FMCS) parameter which changes along the thickness is considered. The novelty of the current study is to consider the effects of porosity, GNPRC, FMCS and thermal environment on the resonance frequencies, thermal...
Modeling the interphase layer between CNT and matrix in nanocomposites using nonlinear large deformation hierarchical multiscale

Abstract
We have used a hierarchical multiscale modeling scheme for the analysis of carbon nanotube reinforced nanocomposites. This scheme consists of definition of two boundary value problems, one for macroscale (the scale in which the material exists homogeneously and we are interested in modeling the material behavior on that scale), and another for microscale (the scale in which the material becomes heterogeneous and microstructural constituents emerge). The coupling between these scales is done by using homogenization techniques. Using the presented scheme, we have studied carbon nanotube (CNT) reinforced composites behavior and the effects of an interphase layer between CNT and matrix material....

Abstract
As one of the key technologies for high performance electronic devices, composite solders have been recently developed to improve thermal and mechanical properties of solder joints. In this study, accumulative roll bonding process was used as an effective alternative method for manufacturing high-strength, finely dispersed, void-free and highly uniform Sn-Ag-Cu/CeO 2 nanocomposite solders. Microstructural investigation of nanocomposite solders revealed that homogenous distribution of CeO 2 nanoparticle has been achieved and the eutectic as-cast morphology of the solder changed to recrystallized fine grained structure. As a result of severe plastic deformation during rolling, brittle and...

Abstract
In this article, wave propagation characteristics of a size-dependent graphene nanoplatelet (GNP) reinforced composite cylindrical nanoshell coupled with piezoelectric actuator (PIAC) and surrounded with viscoelastic foundation is presented. The effects of small scale are analyzed based on nonlocal strain gradient theory (NSGT) which is an accurate theory employing exact length scale parameter and nonlocal constant. The governing equations of the GNP composite cylindrical nanoshell coupled with PIAC have been evolved using Hamilton’s principle and solved with assistance of the analytical method. For the first time in the current study, wave propagation electrical behavior of a GNP composite...
Effect of interphase zone on the overall elastic properties of nanoparticle-reinforced polymer nanocomposites

Abstract
In the current work, the effect of interphase region on the mechanical properties of polymer nanocomposites reinforced with nanoparticles is studied. For this purpose, a closed-form interphase model as a function of radial distance based on finite-size representative volume element is suggested to estimate the mechanical properties of particle-reinforced nanocomposites. The effective Young’s and shear moduli of thermoplastic polycarbonate-based nanocomposites for a wide range of sizes and volume fractions of silicon carbide nanoparticles are investigated using the proposed interphase model and molecular dynamics simulations. In order to investigate the effect of particle size, several unit...

Abstract
A fine-grained Al-Mg/Al3 Ti nanocomposite was fabricated by friction stir processing (FSP) of an aluminum-magnesium (AA5052) alloy with pre-placed titanium powder in the stirred zone. Microstructural evolutions and formation of intermetallic phases were analyzed by optical and electron microscopic techniques across the thickness section of the processed sheets. The microstructure of the nanocomposite consisted of a fine-grained aluminum matrix (1.5 μm), un-reacted titanium particles (<40 μm) and reinforcement particles of Al3 Ti (<100 nm) and Mg2 Si (<100 nm). Detailed microstructural analysis indicated solid-state interfacial reactions between the aluminum...

Abstract
A small volume fraction of Carbon Nanotubes (CNTs) added in a polymeric matrix increases significantly the mechanical properties of the polymers. It is experimentally determined from the TEM images of CNT-based nanocomposites that nanotubes don't stand straight in their embedded matrix and they have some curvature in their shape. The load transfer mechanism between CNT and polymer matrix is also one of the most important issues which is not understood explicitly, yet. In this paper a wavy Single Walled Carbon Nanotube (SWCNT) is modeled as inclusion in a polymer matrix and its effective mechanical properties is studied. This model is based on using 3-D Representive Volume Element (RVE) with...
