Dynamic response and optimization of functionally graded porous nanocomposite cylinders using a meshfree method

A new class of advanced ultralight composite materials has recently emerged through the use porous polymer matrix reinforced by carbon nanotubes. In this article, the dynamic response of functionally graded porous polymeric cylinders, reinforced by randomly oriented single‐walled carbon nanotubes, using a meshfree method is studied. Three different porosity distribution patterns are investigated: symmetric distribution (SYD), unsymmetric...
