Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have been the subject of intensive studies for applications in the fields of nanotechnologies in recent years due to their superior mechanical, electric, optical and electronic properties. Because of their high Young’s modulus (≈ 1 TPa), tensile strength (≈ 200 GPa) and high elongation (10-30%) as well as high chemical stability, CNTs are considered to be attractive reinforcement materials for light weight and high strength metal matrix composites. In this paper, we described a scheme for multi-scale modeling for the elastic and plastic properties of CNT/metal nanocomposites using the numerical analyses of the three-dimensional finite element method based on the continuum mechanics of a unit cell. In particular, the quantitative effects of the distribution and the array of the CNT reinforcement (viz. cross-over, vertical and horizontal distributions) on the elasticity and plasticity of the nanocomposites were investigated and the anisotropic characteristics of elasticity and plasticity of the nanocomposites were linked with the extremely high aspect ratio of CNTs.

Broad Program

As part of a broad program on composite materials, the role of the interface on the micromechanics of deformation of metal-matrix composites is being studied. The approach is to correlate elastic behavior, micro and macroyielding, flow, and fracture behavior with associated structural detail (dislocation substructure, fracture characteristics) and stress-state. This provides an understanding of the mode of deformation from an atomistic viewpoint; a critical evaluation can then be made of existing models of composite behavior based on continuum mechanics. This paper covers the electron microscopy (transmission, fractography, scanning microscopy) of two distinct forms of composite material: conventional fiber-reinforced (aluminum-stainless steel) and directionally solidified eutectic alloys (aluminum-copper). In the former, the interface is in the form of a compound and/or solid solution whereas in directionally solidified alloys, the interface consists of a precise crystallographic boundary between the two constituents of the eutectic.
