Buckling and vibration characteristics of a carbon nanotube

In this article, buckling and vibrational behaviors of a carbon nanotube reinforced spinning cylindrical thick shell carrying spring–mass systems and conveying viscous fluid flow are investigated under various temperature distributions. Also, the installed sensors on the proposed system are considered as a tip mass. The uniform distribution and the functionally graded distribution patterns of reinforcement are considered. The modeled cylindrical thick shell and governing equations are derived by a new three-dimensional refined higher-order theory. Finally, the effects of various types of carbon nanotube reinforcements and other parameters on buckling and vibrational characteristics of the structure are investigated in detail
