The present paper reviews the current state of the art of carbon nanotubes cement-based composites and the possible applications. The influence of carbon nanotubes additions onto cement paste mechanical and electrical properties are…
The use of elastomers has become increasingly important in a variety of industries, including automotive, medical, and food packaging. The adaptability of elastomers to different mechanical stresses has made them a popular choice for these…
Interfacial interaction is investigated between the two basic constituents in carbon fiber reinforced plastics (CFRPs). Efforts have been made to quantify the interfacial shear strength (IFSS) between individual carbon fiber (CF) and epoxy…
Uniform dispersion of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) is a key issue for utilization of their reinforcement potential in CNT-reinforced metal matrix nanocomposites (MMNCs). It was reported that CNT clusters often exist in MMNCs prepared by various…
This article investigates the possibility of exploiting innovative polyvinyl alcohol fibers reinforced with carbon nanotubes (PVA-CNT fiber) as a strain sensor in cement mortars used in the restoration of Cultural Heritage Monuments. Two…
Cement and concrete composites are inherently brittle and exhibit very less tensile/flexural strength capacity as compared to their compressive strength. Use of thoroughly dispersed carbon nanotubes in the concrete matrix is one of the…
Conductive PLA is an innovative composite material that combines the ecological benefits of polylactic acid, a biodegradable thermoplastic, with electrical conductivity properties. Usually used in additive manufacturing for its ease of…
Soft computing techniques, with their self-learning capabilities, fuzzy principles, and evolutionary computational philosophy, are being increasingly utilized in modeling complex machining processes. This study develops artificial neural…
The composite materials are normally made of reinforcements and resins. High-performance composites are generally termed hybrid composite materials. Generally, fiber-reinforced composite laminates are very weak in their out-of-plane…
This study examines the influence of graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs) and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) on the mechanical properties of SiO2-loaded epoxy-polylactic acid (PLA) composites. Epoxy and PLA were mixed to form the matrix…
