Book excerpt: This open access book brings out the state of the art on how informatics-based tools are used and expected to be used in nanomaterials research. There has been great progress in the area in which “big-data” generated by experiments or computations are fully utilized to accelerate discovery of new materials, key factors, and design rules. Data-intensive approaches play indispensable roles in advanced materials characterization. "Materials informatics" is the central paradigm in the new trend. "Nanoinformatics" is its essential subset, which focuses on nanostructures of materials such as surfaces, interfaces, dopants, and point defects, playing a critical role in determining materials properties. There have been significant advances in experimental and computational techniques to characterize individual atoms in nanostructures and to gain quantitative information. The collaboration of researchers in materials science and information science is growing actively and is creating a new trend in materials science and engineering.

This book was released on 2021-08-30 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The broad use of composite materials and shell structural members with complex geometries in technologies related to various branches of engineering has gained increased attention from scientists and engineers for the development of even more refined approaches and investigation of their mechanical behavior. It is well known that composite materials are able to provide higher values of strength stiffness, and thermal properties, together with conferring reduced weight, which can affect the mechanical behavior of beams, plates, and shells, in terms of static response, vibrations, and buckling loads. At the same time, enhanced structures made of composite materials can feature internal length scales and non-local behaviors, with great sensitivity to different staking sequences, ply orientations, agglomeration of nanoparticles, volume fractions of constituents, and porosity levels, among others. In addition to fiber-reinforced composites and laminates, increased attention has been paid in literature to the study of innovative components such as functionally graded materials (FGMs), carbon nanotubes (CNTs), graphene nanoplatelets, and smart constituents. Some examples of smart applications involve large stroke smart actuators, piezoelectric sensors, shape memory alloys, magnetostrictive and electrostrictive materials, as well as auxetic components and angle-tow laminates. These constituents can be included in the lamination schemes of smart structures to control and monitor the vibrational behavior or the static deflection of several composites. The development of advanced theoretical and computational models for composite materials and structures is a subject of active research and this is explored here for different complex systems, including their static, dynamic, and buckling responses; fracture mechanics at different scales; the adhesion, cohesion, and delamination of materials and interfaces.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, the results of investigation of liquid dynamics in carbon nanotubes are presented. The analysis of liquid structures and the character of its flow plus the results of experiments show that the simulation of fluid flow for nanoscale systems should be based on the continuum hypothesis taking into account the quantised character of the liquid in the length scale of intermolecular distances. Consideration of the flow characteristics allows analogy of the behavior of the liquid in a nanotube with a flow of a viscoplastic Bingham fluid. A model of mass transfer of liquid in a nanotube is introduced. It is based on the possibility of forming an empty interlayer between the moving fluid particles and the particles of the wall of the nanotube.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the third volume in a series of books on selected topics in Nanoscale Science and Technology based on lectures given at the well-known Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare (INFN) schools of the same name. The present set of notes stems in particular from the participation and dedication of prestigious lecturers, such as Nunzio Motta, Fulvia Patella, Alexandr Toropov, and Anna Sgarlata. All lectures have been carefully edited and reworked, taking into account extensive follow-up discussions. A tutorial lecture by Motta et al. presents the analysis of the Poly(3-hexylthiophene) self assembly on carbon nanotubes and discusses how the interaction between the two materials forms a new hybrid nanostructure, with potential application to future solar cells technology. In their contribution, Patella et al. review quantum dots of III-V compounds, which offer appealing perspectives for more sophisticated applications in new generation devices such as single-photon emitters for nano-photonics and quantum computing. Focusing on self-assembled quantum dots, the chapter by Alexandr Toropov et al. provides a comprehensive review of some important aspects in the formation of quantum dots and presents the results of the authors’ extensive investigation of the features of droplet epitaxy. The fourth contribution, by Sgarlata et al., focuses on recent progress toward controlled growth of self-assembled nanostructures, dealing with the shaping, ordering and localization in Ge/Si heteroepitaxy and reviewing recent results on the self-organization of Ge nanostructures at Si surfaces.

Download or read book First Principles based Molecular Modeling of Thermal Transport in Silicon based Nanomaterials written by Yongjin Lee and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In today's nanotechnology, a critical issue is to gain the ability to control the structure and function of matter with a deeper understanding of the quantitative and qualitative relationship among their synthesis conditions, structures, and properties. Experiments may provide information regarding the behavior of nanomaterials, but their interpretations are often controversial due largely to the difficulty of direct measurement. Hereupon, with the amazing advance in computer technology since the late 20th century, computational modeling in science and engineering is increasingly important particularly in the fields of nanoscience and nanotechnology while it can provide researchers with significant insights into atomic-level interactions in various materials systems and underlying fundamental theories. The ability of engineering thermal conductivity of materials on the nanoscale has become extremely important in various applications including electronics and energy storage/conversion technologies. Due to technical difficulties in experimentally measuring the thermal conductivity of disordered and complex nanostructures, there has been much interest in use of theoretical and computational methods to investigate thermal transport properties nanostructured materials. One computational method that can perform an accurate analysis for the thermal conductivity of new or complex systems is molecular dynamics (MD), due to its capability of predicting the behaviors of atoms in large systems. In this work, we have developed a comprehensive MD-based computational platform capable of predicting and explaining thermal transport in disordered and complex nanostructured materials. The unique features include construction of realistic nanostructures, determination of reliable force fields, and direct simulation of large systems, which are allowed by coupling various state-of-the-art computational methods including quantum mechanics, molecular mechanics, statistical theories, and massively parallel computing. The computational scheme was applied to describe thermal transport in various silicon and carbon-based disordered and nanostructures. First, the effects of defects including vacancy clusters, substitutional dopants, and dopant-defect complexes on the thermal conductivity of bulk crystalline silicon were investigated. Next, we analyzed the factors affecting heat transport in silicon-germanium and ternary silicon-germanium-tin alloys. Lastly, we performed the analysis of heat transport in silicon-based nanostructures such as nanowires and polycrystalline structures.
