Characterization and Analysis of Badminton Racket Using Single Walled and Multiwalled Carbon Nanotubes
摘要
Nanoscience is the emerging technology to strengthen the devices that are more essential to human life. This chapter discussed structural design considerations of a badminton racket. The stress-strain relationship, modulus of elasticity, bending modulus, and moment of inertia are studied to improve the shaft deflections while smashing the shuttle with high force. Carbon nanotubes are elected for badminton rackets to withstand both rapid forward and side deflections. This paper discussed the physical characteristics of armchairs, Zig-Zag Single-walled carbon nanotubes and double-walled carbon nanotubes (DWCNT). The length of the carbon nanotube is fixed to 200 A. The C-C bond length is considered as 1.4210 A. The stretch factor is considered as ‘1’ for both single-walled and carbon nanotubes (SWCNT). And the ellipse ratio is also considered as ‘1’ for both SWCNT and DWCNT. The screw distortion and bending angle are varied from 00 to 900 for single-walled carbon nanotubes, and the physical elastic properties of the SWCNT and DWCNT are investigated. Finite element analysis is used to analyse SWCNT and DWCNT structures. Nano tube modeler is used to simulate the SWCNT and DWCNT structures.
