Tuning mechanical properties of graphene with Stone-Thrower-Wales defects - A molecular dynamics study G. Rajasekaran and Avinash Parashar Department of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering Indian Institute of Technology, Roorkee - 247667, India HIGHLIGHTS ABSTRACT Structural defects which are inevitable during the production, chemical and heat treatment processes can affect the mechanical properties of graphene and also defects can be deliberately introduced in graphene by ion beam irradiation
this work, the effects of linear and angular orientation of different types of Stone-Thrower-Wales (STW-1 and STW-2) defects on the mechanical properties and failure behaviour of graphene membrane have been investigated in the frame of molecular dynamics. This work discussing about tuneable mechanical properties by amending the linear orientation of STW-1 and STW-2 defects at different angles in zigzag direction and armchair direction respectively. The results obtained from the present work may provide

1.1 INTRODUCTION Not only to save energy but also to protect the global environment, fuel consumption reduction is main concern of automobile development. In development of vehicle body, it is essential to reduce drag for improving fuel consumption and driving performance. An aerodynamically purified body is not only aesthetically attractive but also it will help much to increase the vehicles appeal to the customer [1]. If a body of arbitrary shape, immerged in a large stationary mass of fluid is

Introduction Cricket originated in England with the 1st official test played in 1877 between England and Australia [1] and gradually grew into a global sport with the first
For journal bearing design, the minimum safe value for film thickness is 2.5 microns [2]. Values lower than this can create too low of supporting oil pressure and damage the journal bearing. Bearings in reciprocating machinery operate with dynamic loads creating large journal orbits within the bearing clearance, which is the distance between the radius of the bearing and the radius of the journal
The BART System of Group and Organizational Analysis The BART System of Group was establish to edify the practitioner observation and abilities toward facilitating groups within the followings characteristics Boundary, Authority, Role and Task. This would enhanced the practitioner overall approach with providing the effective structure for the group and individuals to attain success with accomplishing their objectives. According to Zachary Gabriel Green and René J. Molenkamp p 2 (2005) Boundary is
Introduction The report aimed to give the detailed look at the concepts of the group dynamics and the ability to recognise and reflect on its own and others’ behaviours in an experiential group of each lab session. The group is made up of six people they are Siu, Wing, Olivia, Shae, Shelby and I (Min). Johnson and Johnson (2013) argued that group as a number of individual who join together to share or serve various purposes including goal, independence and interpersonal interaction, structured relationship
The Relative Importance of Four Variables as Possible Indicators of Wake Length. Introduction In rivers there are objects that cause more of an obstruction to the overall flow and so generate more resistance than the surrounding grains. This is because they are larger than the bed’s grains and thus they are sometimes known as large roughness elements. Large roughness elements are an important feature in the river bed since they block the path of the flow. Obstructions embedded in a bed such as stones
