摘要
本研究通过详细的分子动力学模拟,探讨了纳米形体尺寸对聚合物-碳基质机械性能的影响。研究重点是半径为 5、7、10、12 和 15 Å 的球形纳米空心体,评估它们对杨氏模量和极限强度等关键力学性能的影响。考虑到这些纳米实体的存在,采用了特尔索夫势能来精确模拟聚合物-碳基体的原子和机械行为。模拟结果表明,势能和总能分别稳定在 -132,279.23 eV 和 -131,522.4 eV,证实了模拟样品的物理稳定性。另一方面,研究结果表明,当纳米晶半径为 5 Å 时,极限强度和杨氏模量分别为 36.41 GPa 和 424.93 GPa。随着纳米实体半径从 5 Å 增加到 15 Å,极限强度和杨氏模量均呈下降趋势,分别从 36.41 GPa 和 424.93 GPa 下降到 31.18 GPa 和 364.39 GPa。此外,较大的纳米形体有助于增加聚合物-碳基体的柔韧性和临界应变。这种对纳米空泡尺寸效应的系统分析为复合材料中的空泡工程提供了一个新的视角。通过加强对空隙尺寸如何影响材料性能的理论理解,该研究为优化先进材料的机械性能和推动结构工程领域的发展提供了重要见解。
Examination of the mechanical properties of porous carbon matrix by considering the Nanovoids: A computational study using molecular dynamics simulation
This study explored the effect of nanovoid size on the mechanical properties of polymer‑carbon matrices through detailed molecular dynamics simulations. The investigation focused on spherical nanovoids with radii of 5, 7, 10, 12, and 15 Å, evaluating their effects on critical mechanical properties, such as Young's modulus and ultimate strength. The Tersoff potential was employed to accurately model the atomic and mechanical behavior of the polymer‑carbon matrix, considering the presence of these nanovoids. The simulation results indicate that the potential energy and total energy stabilized at −132,279.23 eV and − 131,522.4 eV, respectively, confirming the physical stability of simulated samples. On the other hand, the findings reveal that for a nanovoid radius of 5 Å, the ultimate strength and Young's modulus were 36.41 GPa and 424.93 GPa, respectively. As the radius of nanovoids increased from 5 Å to 15 Å, both ultimate strength and Young's modulus exhibited a decreasing trend, with values dropping from 36.41 GPa and 424.93 GPa to 31.18 GPa and 364.39 GPa, respectively. Moreover, larger nanovoids contributed to increased flexibility and a higher critical strain in the polymer‑carbon matrix. This systematic analysis of nanovoid size effects provided a new perspective on void engineering within composites. By enhancing the theoretical understanding of how void dimensions affected material properties, the study offered significant insights for optimizing the mechanical performance of advanced materials and advancing the field of structural engineering.
期刊介绍:
International Communications in Heat and Mass Transfer serves as a world forum for the rapid dissemination of new ideas, new measurement techniques, preliminary findings of ongoing investigations, discussions, and criticisms in the field of heat and mass transfer. Two types of manuscript will be considered for publication: communications (short reports of new work or discussions of work which has already been published) and summaries (abstracts of reports, theses or manuscripts which are too long for publication in full). Together with its companion publication, International Journal of Heat and Mass Transfer, with which it shares the same Board of Editors, this journal is read by research workers and engineers throughout the world.
