The Impact Factor measures the average number of citations received in a particular year by papers published in the journal during the two preceding years. 2017 Journal Citation Reports (Clarivate Analytics, 2018) IF: 1.4 To calculate the five year Impact Factor, citations are counted in 2017 to the previous five years and divided by the source items published in the previous five years. 2017 Journal Citation Reports (Clarivate Analytics, 2018) 5-Year IF: 1.3 The Immediacy Index is the average number of times an article is cited in the year it is published. The journal Immediacy Index indicates how quickly articles in a journal are cited. Immediacy Index: 2.2 The Eigenfactor score, developed by Jevin West and Carl Bergstrom at the University of Washington, is a rating of the total importance of a scientific journal. Journals are rated according to the number of incoming citations, with citations from highly ranked journals weighted to make a larger contribution to the eigenfactor than those from poorly ranked journals. Eigenfactor: 0.00034 The Journal Citation Indicator (JCI) is a single measurement of the field-normalized citation impact of journals in the Web of Science Core Collection across disciplines. The key words here are that the metric is normalized and cross-disciplinary. JCI: 0.46 SJR: 0.333 SNIP: 0.606 CiteScore™:: 3.1 H-Index: 31

SINOPSIS

Carbon nanotube (CNT)-reinforced polymer composites have attracted great attention due to their exceptionally high strength. Their high strength can be affected by the presence of defects in the nanotubes used as reinforcements in practical nanocomposites. In this article, a new three-phase molecular structural mechanics/finite element (MSM/FE) multiscale model is used to study the effect of CNT vacancy defects on the stability of single-wall (SW) CNT-polymer composites. The nanotube is modeled at the atomistic scale using MSM, whereas the interphase layer and polymer matrix are analyzed by the FE method. The nanotube and polymer matrix are assumed to be bonded by van der Waals interactions based on the Lennard-Jones potential. Here, two of the most commonly used buckling regimes of CNTs, called column and shell buckling, are considered. To study the stability of the nanocomposites, the buckling onset strain is calculated for perfect and defected CNTs in the polymer nanocomposites. The results reveal that the presence of vacancy defects causes a decrease in the axial buckling strain of SWCNT-polymer composites. Meanwhile, this decrease is much more noticeable in the case of the column buckling mode. Also, it is shown that decreasing the CNT diameter causes a reduction in the onset buckling strain of defected nanocomposites. Finally, the role of the interphase layer on the stability behavior of these nanocomposites is discussed. It is concluded that the existence of a more compact layer than the polymer chains coated on the nanotube can enhance drastically the buckling behavior of these nanocomposites (about 35%).
