Fabrication and Characterization of Magnesium Matrix Nanocomposites Reinforced with Multiwall Carbon Nanotubes
Abstract: Multiwall Carbon Nanotubes (MWCNTs)-reinforced magnesium nanocomposites were fabricated through powder metallurgy route and then hot extruded as secondary process. CNTs were added by 0.5, 1 and 1.5 wt% with magnesium powders and ball milled to obtain a homogeneous mixture. The effect on mechanical properties of Mg nanocomposites due to the reinforcement of MWCNTs was investigated. The effect of mixing through high-energy ball milling, sintering temperature and extrusion process on the …

Finite Element Analysis of Multiwall Carbon Nanotubes Enabled Single Lap Joint
Abstract: This study uses finite element analysis (FEA) to examine the strength of adhesively bonded single lap joints with and without Multiwall Carbon Nanotubes (MWCNT) added to the adhesive. Shear strength analysis is performed by applying a tensile load that generates shear stress at the overlap between the two substrates bonded with adhesive. Aluminum (Al-Al) substrates were used, and single-lap joints were prepared following ASTM standards. Specimens with identical overlap and …
