Effects of vertically aligned carbon nanotubes on shear performance of laminated nanocomposite bonded joints

The main objective is to improve the most commonly addressed weakness of the laminated composites (i.e. delamination due to poor interlaminar strength) using carbon nanotubes (CNTs) as reinforcement between the laminae and in the transverse direction. In this work, a chemical vapor deposition techni...
