Exploring the benefits of functionally graded carbon nanotubes (FG-CNTs) as a platform for targeted drug delivery systems

The flutter of a composite wing reinforced with functionally graded carbon nanotubes (CNTs) has been investigated. A rectangular plate models a supersonic wing with cantilever boundary conditions. To determine displacement fields of a moderately thick plate, shear deformation theory is used. Using the Hamilton principle, a first-order piston theory was used to simulate supersonic airflow. This study examines four types of CNT thickness. Also, four different CNT distribution patterns are investigated. In a two-layer asymmetric composite, the effects of patch mass, mass distribution, fiber orientation angle, and distribution of CNTs were examined. Moreover, the results are compared and verified with other studies. A greater mass ratio led to a smaller flutter boundary, while a longer added mass increased the flutter boundary. A variation in the distribution pattern in CNT fiber orientation results in a distinct behavior of the flutter boundary for asymmetric composites with increasing orientation angles. The artificial neural network is utilized to predict the damping ratio, and the results showed great accuracy compared to the study results. Hyperparameter tuning is employed for better optimizing the predictive models.
