Rational structural design of Nile barges

This paper has demonstrated the design aspects for inland water units working in the River Nile.The acting loads and stresses induced within the structural elements of Nile barges are still water bending moment and stresses, local hydrostatic pressure and local stresses.The objective of this work is to rationalize the design procedure using the act

A novel reduced graphene oxide decorated with halloysite nanotubes (HNTs-d-rGO) hybrid composite and its flame-retardant application for polyamide 6

The improvement of flame-retardant properties of polyamide 6 (PA6) was achieved by using reduced graphene oxide decorated with halloysite nanotubes (HNTs-d-rGO) hybrid composite as the additive in PA6 matrix.The intimate integration of reduced graphene oxide (rGO) and halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) through a three-step chemical functionalization, enab
