Computation of Effective Elastic Properties Using a Three-Dimensional Semi-Analytical Approach for Transversely Isotropic Nanocomposites

A three-dimensional semi-analytical finite element method (SAFEM-3D) is implemented in this work to calculate the effective properties of periodic elastic-reinforced nanocomposites. Different inclusions are also considered, such as discs, ellipsoidals, spheres, carbon nanotubes (CNT) and carbon nano...
