Abstract
The curved structural components of aircraft, automobiles, and marine vessels, such as cylindrical panels, are primarily exposed to loading, which can result in bending failure, particularly in lightweight structures. The bending analysis of cylindrical panels made of functionally graded multiwall carbon nanotube (FG-MWCNT) epoxy composites is subjective in this study. In the first section, FG-MWCNT composite cylindrical panels are simulated in the ANSYS software. There are three methods for distributing uniaxially aligned reinforcements. The material properties of the carbon nanotubes uniformly distributed and functionally graded over the thickness of the shell structure are estimated using an extended rule of mixture micromechanical model that incorporates certain useful characteristics. To demonstrate the effectiveness and applicability of the proposed finite element approach, deflection data are presented. The analysis of the shell structure's bending includes an investigation of the impact of CNT volume fraction, boundary condition, lengthto-thickness ratio, and other geometrical factors
