Buckling of Functionally Graded Multilayer Graphene Nanocomposites

该项目旨在帮助开发由石墨烯纳米复合材料制成的新型轻质结构构件，这些构件具有极大的抗突然或渐进屈曲破坏的能力。在过大的压缩荷载作用下发生突变或渐进性屈曲破坏是工程结构中常见且往往是灾难性的问题。该项目旨在开发一种功能梯度多层石墨烯纳米复合材料结构，并考虑初始缺陷的影响，对其屈曲和后屈曲行为进行理论、数值和实验相结合的研究。该项目旨在通过提高结构的可靠性来提高轻质纳米复合材料结构的力学性能的知识库。

This project aims to contribute to the development of novel lightweight structural members made of graphene nanocomposites with greatly enhanced resistance to abrupt or progressive buckling failure. Abrupt or progressive buckling failure under excessive compressive loads is a common and often catastrophic problem in engineering structures. The project intends to develop a functionally graded multilayer graphene nanocomposite structure and to conduct a combined theoretical, numerical and experimental investigation into its buckling and postbuckling behaviours, taking into account the effect of initial imperfection. The project aims to advance the knowledge base of the mechanical behaviour of lightweight nanocomposite structures with improved structural reliability.
