Abstract
- • The functionalized MWCNTs/HDPE based functionally graded nanocomposites are fabricated using 3D printing. • The micrographs of 3D printed FGNC samples reveal the seamless bonding between each layer of different compositions. • The highest P cr is noted for H5 and FGNC-2 among the 3D printed NC and FGNC samples, respectively. • The natural frequency of the NCs and FGNCs increases with increased MWCNTs % while decreases with increasing compressive load. • The numerical and experimental results are noted to be in good agreement. The experimental and numerical investigations are carried out for buckling and vibration of 3D printed functionalized MWCNTs/HDPE based nanocomposite (NC) and their functionally graded nanocomposite (FGNC) variants. P cr (critical buckling load) is computed through MBC (modified budiansky criteria) and DTM (double tangent method) techniques. It is observed that P cr of the 3D printed NCs and FGNCs increases with the functionalized MWCNTs content. The P cr values for the NCs (H0.5-H5) computed using DTM and MBC increased in the range of 16–79%, while for FGNC-1 (H0.5-H1-H3) and FGNC-2 (H1-H3-H5), the P cr increased from 54 to 91% compared to HDPE. Further, it is observed that the natural frequency of the NCs and FGNCs increases with the functionalized MWCNTs loading while decreases with rise in compression. The natural frequency of the NCs (H0.5-H5) and FGNCs increased up to 41% than HDPE. The highest P cr and the natural frequency is noted for H5 and FGNC-2 prints. The experimental and numerical results showed good agreement. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
