In the present study, the SWCNT is assumed to be a curved beam, which is unlike previous similar work. Firstly, the governing equations of motion are derived by the Hamilton principle, meanwhile, the Galerkin approach is carried out to convert the nonlinear integral-differential equation into a second-order nonlinear ordinary differ- ential equation. Then, the precise integration method based on the local linearzation is appropriately designed for solving the above dynamic equations. Besides, the numerical example is presented, the effects of the nonlocal parameters, the elastic medium constants, the waviness ratios, and the material lengths on the dynamic response are analyzed. The results show that the above mentioned effects have influences on the dynamic behavior of the SWCNT.展开更多

Using tabular alumina as aggregates, tabular alumina, SiC powders, Si powders, calcium aluminate cenwnt, microsilica and ultrafine α-A12 03 powders as matrix, alumina based ultra low cement (ULC) castables were prepared. Influences of Si powder addition at O, 4% , 6% , 8% alul 10% (in nutss ) on regular properties, cold modulus of rupture (CMOR), hot modulus of rupture (HMOR), thermal shock resistance (TSR) and microstructure of the castables after carbonization were investigated. After incorporation of Si powders and carbon embedded heating, the in-situ mullite and nonoxide phases such as SiAION and SiC can be fornwd by oxidation, nitridation or carbomlzation reaction. HMOR and TSR of the castables with in-situ nonoxides bonding are obviously improted. After carbon embedded heating, the HMOR at 1 400 ℃ increases from 1.6 MPa to 8. 3 MPa, and the residual CMOR ratio after thermal shock increases from 64. 9% to 137. 9% when Si addition increases from 0 to 10%.展开更多
