Micromechanics model for predicting effective elastic moduli of porous ceramic matrices with randomly oriented carbon nanotube reinforcements

Multi-step micromechanics-based models are developed to predict the overall effective elastic moduli of porous ceramic with randomly oriented carbon nanotube (CNT) reinforcements. The presence of porosity in the ceramic matrix that has been previously neglected in the literature is considered in pre...
