Strain rate effects in the mechanical response of polymer anchored carbon nanotube foams
A. Misra, J. R. Greer, C. Daraio
Super-compressible foam-like carbon nanotube films have been reported to exhibit highly nonlinear viscoelastic behaviour in compression similar to soft tissue. Their unique combina…
