Abstract:
This paper presents an analytical solution to a coupled vibration problem of fluid-conveying double-walled carbon nanotubes (DWCNTs) and analyzes the influences of nonlocal effect, aspect ratio and van der Waals interaction on the fundamental frequency. According to the analysis, the results show that the vibration frequencies of the first three modes of DWCNTs are lower than those of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs). The trend is more obvious when the flow velocity is high. It can also be found that the velocity of vibration-induced flutter instability for DWCNTs is lower than that of SWCNTs. In addition, the frequency of mode 1 of DWCNTs decreases with increasing nonlocal parameter. However, the frequency increases as the aspect ratio and the van der Waals interaction increased, especially at higher flow velocities.

Abstract:
This study investigates the behavior of water molecules inside Au nanotubes by molecular dynamics. Different sizes of Au nanotubes under three temperatures for three levels of density of Au nanotube have been studied. The structure of each thermodynamic state is analyzed through the characterization of the hydrogen-bond network. An observation of the water molecule distribution reveals that the adsorption of water molecules creates shell-like formation of water near the Au nanotube wall, and such formations are found to be more pronounced within an Au nanotube. Au atoms of different sizes have an affinity for water molecules at different temperatures.

Title:
Maximum Velocity for a Single Water Molecule Entering a Carbon Nanotube

Abstract:
Carbon nanotubes, despite their hydrophobic nature, rapidly fill with water and allow super fast fluid flow through their interior due to the almost frictionless nanotube surface. The question arises as to whether it is possible to maximize the uptake (suction energy) of water and thus generate the highest possible fluid flow. In this paper, we outline the concepts of an acceptance condition and the suction energy and subsequently examine the suction characteristics of a single water molecule entering a carbon nanotube. In particular, we find that for the hydrogen atoms oriented towards the tube end, the radius of the carbon nanotube must be at least 3.464 angstrom (or 0.3464 nm) for acceptance of a water molecule, and that a radius of 3.95 angstrom provides the maximum uptake or suction energy.

Abstract:
The encapsulation of Pt nanoparticles into the cavities of MWNTs was prepared by pyrolysis of a mixture of Pt acetylacetonate and MWNTs under vacuum at 500 degrees C and subsequent thermal heating to form high surface area Pt nanostructure. Pat nanoparticles with an average size of 3.0 nm were found to be highly dispersed on the outside surface of the MWNTs and encapsulated in them. For comparison, Pd and Ru nanoparticles were also investigated using the same synthetic process to further explore the filling mechanism of metal nanoparticles inside carbon nanotubes. The presence of metal nanoparticles that were attached to the MWNTs was characterized by TEM, HRTEM, and FT-IR. The filling mechanism was also proposed.

Abstract:
We investigate the influence of correlation between water molecules transport through the neighbouring nanopores, whose centres are at a distance of only 6.2 angstrom, using the molecular dynamics simulations. Water molecule distribution in nanopore and average water flow are obtained. It is found that the average water molecule number and water flow are slightly different between a system made of the neighbouring nanopores and a system of a single pore. This indicates that transport of water chains in neighbouring pores do no show significant influence each other. These findings should be helpful in designing efficient artificial membrane made of nanopores and providing an insight into effects of the biological channel structure on the water permeation.
