And the indentation stress fields of materials with varying ratio H/E on the surface were studied by the experiment. The results show that the penetration depth, contact radius, plastic pile-up and the degree of elastic recovery depend strongly on the ratio H/E. Moreover, graphs were established to describe the relationship between the elastic-plastic indentation parameters and H/E. The established graphs can be used to predict the H/E of materials when compared with experimental data.展开更多

The mathematical model of tensile behaviors of BCNTs was established based on molecular structural mechanics theory. The deformations of BCNTs, with different diameters and compartments set based on the experimental investigation on BCNT structures synthesized by chemical vapor depositon, under tensile load, were analyzed with ANSYS programmed. Results show that the BCNTs have good tensile properties, and those Young's modulus can reach 0.84 Tpa. Through the analysis, it can be found that the Young's modulus of BCNTs depends on the diameters and the length of compartment, which is in good agreement with our experimental tests for the tensile performances of individual BCNT.展开更多
