Abstract:
Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) show great potential for use in nanofluidic devices. Based on an elastic beam model, this paper studies the flow-induced structural instability and bifurcations of CNTs conveying fluids. Explicit formulas have been obtained for the solution of dynamic description of CNTs in which fluids flow. Based on the obtained solutions, the critical flow velocities for Pitchfork bifurcation and Hopf bifurcation have been determined by using the elastic beam model. The results indicate that the critical flow velocities for the structural instability are inversely proportional to the aspect ratio (L/R-out) of the CNT. The effect of the size of CNTs and the surrounding elastic matrix on the instability and divergence of CNT-fluid system has been discussed in detail.
