Abstract: The nonlinear dynamic response of nanocomposite microcantilevers is investigated. The microbeams are made of a polymeric hosting matrix (e.g., epoxy, polyether ether ketone (PEEK), and polycarbonate) reinforced by ...

Abstract: A computational framework is proposed to perform parameter continuation of periodic solutions of nonlinear, distributedparameter systems represented by partial differential equations with timedependent coefficients and ...

Abstract: Hysteresis due to stick-slip energy dissipation in carbon nanotube (CNT) nanocomposites is experimentally observed, measured, and identified through a one-dimensional (1D) phenomenological model obtained via reduction of ...
