(a) Axi-symmetric meshing for the MMC reinforced with 0.20 volume fraction of CNT and interfaces of 15 nm with end-cap, (b) Young’s moduli variation vs CNT volume fraction, depending on the thickness of the interfacial Al4C3 layer for estimations obtained using FEA, and (c) Young’s moduli variation vs CNT volume fraction, for estimations obtained using Rule of Mixtures and FEA models, and interfacial Al4C3 layer thickness of the 15 nm (Alfonso et al. 2015).
