Abstract
Since the discovery of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) by Iijima in 1991, interest in carbon nanotechnology has grown very rapidly because of the unique, often enhanced, properties of nanoscale materials. Owing to their superior mechanical and physical properties, carbon nanotubes seem to hold a great promise as an ideal reinforcing material for advanced composites of high-strength and low-density. However, in most of the experimental results, only modest improvements in the strength and stiffness have been achieved by incorporating carbon nanotubes in polymers. In this talk, the mechanical properties of carbon nanotubes and their composites will be investigated by multiscale mechanics methods.
