Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, advanced nanocomposites have attracted a great deal of attention from materials engineers and industrialists due to numerous advantages, including the use of a small amount of nanofillers to significantly enhance the material properties of resulting nanocomposites, widespread applications in a range of fields, such as automobiles, aerospace and aerocrafts, building structures, biomedical devices, et cetera, as well as easy processibility based on current manufacturing technologies, such as melt compounding, solution casting, in situ polymerisation and electrospinning. Advanced nanocomposites reinforced with carbon nanotubes (CNTs), graphene oxides (GOs), nanoclays, nanocellulose, and nanofibres demonstrate excellent multifunctional properties, consisting of better mechanical, thermal, electrical, and barrier properties. The key issue is still the encountered challenge of homogeneous filler dispersion in morphological structures for tailored advanced nanocomposites. Hence, processing-structure-property nanocomposite relationship is crucial for their future development as innovative hybrid material systems. This Special Issue will address above-mentioned points in relation to manufacturing, characterisation, and properties of advanced nanocomposites to offer an insight into this new composite family with the incorporation of nanofillers, nanoparticles, and nanomaterials in order to eventually achieve the nanotechnological "bottom-up" scheme.].

Download or read book Characterization of Nanocomposites written by Frank Abdi and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2017-03-31 with total page 509 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These days, advanced multiscale hybrid materials are being produced in the industry, studied by universities, and used in several applications. Unlike for macromaterials, it is difficult to obtain the physical, mechanical, electrical, and thermal properties of nanomaterials because of the scale. Designers, however, must have knowledge of these properties to perform any finite element analysis or durability and damage tolerance analysis. This is the book that brings this knowledge within easy reach. What makes the book unique is the fact that its approach that combines multiscale multiphysics and statistical analysis with multiscale progressive failure analysis. The combination gives a very powerful tool for minimizing tests, improving accuracy, and understanding the effect of the statistical nature of materials, in addition to the mechanics of advanced multiscale materials, all the way to failure. The book focuses on obtaining valid mechanical properties of nanocomposite materials by accurate prediction and observed physical tests, as well as by evaluation of test anomalies of advanced multiscale nanocomposites containing nanoparticles of different shapes, such as chopped fiber, spherical, and platelet, in polymeric, ceramic, and metallic materials. The prediction capability covers delamination, fracture toughness, impact resistance, conductivity, and fire resistance of nanocomposites. The methodology employs a high-fidelity procedure backed with comparison of predictions with test data for various types of static, fatigue, dynamic, and crack growth problems. Using the proposed approach, a good correlation between the simulation and experimental data is established.

These days advanced multi-scale hybrid materials are being produced in the industry, studied by the universities, and used in several applications. Unlike macro materials, it is difficult to obtain physical, mechanical, electrical, and thermal properties of nano materials due to the scales. For designers to perform any finite element analysis or durability and damage tolerance analysis, it is important to have knowledge of these properties. The scope of the book is limited to the discussion of material characterization methodology for constituents of advanced hybrid multi-scale composites by means of reverse-engineering method using test data from macro/continuum level properties to micro and nano level. The book goes further in showing how these constituent reverse-engineered properties are used to predict macro-level continuum properties combining all nano- (Mori-Tanaka formulation) and micro-level (micro-mechanics [modified rule-of-mixture]) analytical models, statistical formulation, and finite element analysis in conjunction with multi-scale progressive failure analysis. The book compares the predictions with test data and is shown to cover static, explicit, and fracture mechanics types of loading conditions.
