Multiscale Modeling and Simulation of Nanoparticle-reinforced Damping Materials

摘要

Carbon nanotubes are used in many applications, particularly for vibration damping and noise reducing materials. In the present paper, multiscale computational approaches to modeling of nanoparticle-reinforced composite materials and virtual reality engineering tools have been used to describe/model an intuitive interface of some CNT-reinforced materials to enable efficient design and synthesis of next generation materials and nanoscale devices. The scope is to understand the damping mechanisms in a vis-coelastic polymeric medium. In this paper the equilibrium equation of damping structure is described with advanced FEM-based models and is solved with the help of a numerical code created by CASE tools.
