Abstract
Carbon nano tube fiber reinforced hybrid smart composites are often used in many engineering applications due to their high specific mechanical properties. This paper is concerned with the investigation of effective elastic and piezoelectric properties of hybrid smart nano composites. For this purpose, a hybrid smart composite reinforced with carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and piezoelectric fibers is proposed. The effective properties for the proposed composite are estimated analytically by using Mori Tanaka method. The different diameters of CNTs were taken for the analysis purpose. The effect of CNT diameters on the volume fractions of piezoelectric fibers for the proposed composite is examined. The results clearly highlight the benefits of using different types of CNTs. It is found that the change in diameter can play a significant role in the determination of effective properties of CNT reinforced hybrid composites
