Abstract

The interface of carbon nanotube (CNTs)/alumina ceramic composites has a very important effect on their mechanical properties. In this study, an appropriate theoretical cell model was established to study the interfacial stress transmission in CNT/alumina composites. The stress transfer equation is derived as follows: The tensile stress of the CNTs and interfacial shear stress were simulated under an axial tension load, and the relationship between the stress transmission and the effective length of the CNTs was analyzed. The theoretical results were compared with the finite element method (FEM) results, and the results were found to be in good agreement. This study can provide a theoretical basis for adjusting the appropriate length of CNTs and interfacial interactions under different tension loads.
