Because of their high thermal conductivity, graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) can be employed as fillers to enhance the thermal transfer properties of composite materials, such as polymer-based ones. However, when the filler loading is higher than the geometric percolation threshold, the interfacial thermal resistance between adjacent GNRs may significantly limit the overall thermal transfer through a network of fillers. In this article, reverse non-equilibrium molecular dynamics is used to investigate the impact of the relative orientation (i.e., horizontal and vertical overlap, interplanar spacing and angular displacement) of couples of GNRs on their interfacial thermal resistance. Based on the simulation results, we propose an empirical correlation between the thermal resistance at the interface of adjacent GNRs and their main geometrical parameters, namely the normalized projected overlap and average interplanar spacing. The reported correlation can be beneficial for speeding up bottom-up approaches to the multiscale analysis of the thermal properties of composite materials, particularly when thermally conductive fillers create percolating pathways.

There are many problems facing aircraft in the air during flight, such as lightning strikes and ice accumulation on aircraft surfaces. These problems usually reduce aircraft efficiency and lead to serious accidents and fatalities. However, the current protection systems used to solve these problems of aircraft represent excessive energy usage, a hazard to the environment, and they are generally bulky, heavy and costly. Therefore, there are new conductive composites containing an embedded layer of conductive fibers such as graphene and carbon nanotube designed to carry lightning currents, in addition to that, there is a new deicing heater element made of graphene nanoribbons films to be used in ice protection systems. This paper presents a review of some problems facing aircraft in the air, such as lightning and ice accumulation on the surfaces of the aircraft and the significant efforts that have been exerted to address and solve these issues. Also, this paper reviews the contribution of composite materials in reducing the weight of the aircraft and fuel consumption as well as increasing the efficiency of aircraft. This paper also will review the conductive composite materials and its application for aviation, in addition to their contribution to solving the most important problems in aviation.
