In this paper, the influence of various vacancy and Stone-Wales defects on the Young’s modulus of single walled carbon nanotubes is investigated via a structural model. Dispersion in experimental results is the motivation for this work. Our results...

It is often difficult to directly obtain specific design parameters of interest. In these situations, estimation based on empirical correlations is an alternative. The deformation modulus of a rock mass, which is important to know for engineering...

An optimum pavement structure design requires characterization of materials under traffic loading. Investigation of stress-strain relationship of materials, under traffic loading is advised to determine the appropriate stiffness modulus. Since...

modulus is very sensitive to soil disturbance, especially for sand, determination of the stiffness of soil in the field is more reliable than in laboratory tests on sampled specimens. Measurement of shear modulus is one of the most common applications...

The aim of this research was to investigate the flexural strength and the Young’s modulus of three
