We perform systematic numerical simulations for carbon nanotube (CNT) film microstrip antennas to fabricate flexible and durable applications in terms of various device design parameters. The selection of appropriate materials for…
One of the major shortcomings of discrete element modelling (DEM) is the computational cost required when the number of particles is huge, especially for fine powders and/or industry scale simulations. This study investigates the scaling of…
Carbon nanotube (CNT) fiber is formed by assembling millions of individual tubes. The assembly feature provides the fiber with rich interface structures and thus various ways of energy dissipation, as reflected by the non-zero loss tangent…
This article presents a new force model for performing quantitative simulations of dense granular materials. Interactions between multiple contacts (MC) on the same grain are explicitly taken into account. Our readily applicable method…
High strain rate experiments performed on multi-walled carbon nanotubes and polycarbonate composites (MWCNT-PC) have exhibited enhanced impact resistance under a dynamic strain rate of nearly 2500/s with composition of only 0.5 to 2.0…
Transfer printing methods are used to pattern and assemble monolithic carbon nanotube (CNT) thin-film transistors on large-area transparent, flexible substrates. Airbrushed CNT thin-films with sheet resistance 1kOhmsquare^{-1} at 80%…

Numerical Simulations are employed to create amorphous nano-films of a chosen thickness on a crystalline substrate which induces strain on the film. The films are grown by a vapor deposition technique which was recently developed to create…
Digital Image Correlation is used to study the micromechanics of a multi-contact interface formed between a rough elastomer and a smooth glass surface. The in-plane elastomer deformation is monitored during the incipient sliding regime,…
Micropillar compression experiments probing size effects in confined plasticity of metal thin films, including the indirect imposition of 'canonical' simple shearing boundary conditions, show dramatically different responses in compression…
