Although meta-generalized-gradient approximations (meta-GGAs) are believed potentially the most accurate among the efficient first-principles calculations, the performance has not been accessed on the nonlinear mechanical properties of two-dimensional nanomaterials. Graphene, like two-dimensional silicon carbide g-SiC, has a wide direct band-gap with applications in high-power electronics and solar energy. Taken g-SiC as a paradigm, we have investigated the performance of meta-GGA functionals on the nonlinear mechanical properties under large strains, both compressive and tensile, along three deformation modes using Strongly Constrained and Appropriately Normed Semilocal Density Functional (SCAN) as an example. A close comparison suggests that the nonlinear mechanics predicted from SCAN are very similar to that of Perdew-Burke-Ernzerhof (PBE) formulated functional, a standard Density Functional Theory (DFT) functional. The improvement from SCAN calculation over PBE calculation is minor, despite the considerable increase of computing demand. This study could be helpful in selection of density functionals in simulations and modeling of mechanics of materials.

For the circuit breaker, mechanical fault make up the largest share of the fault. In order to ensure reliable and secure power system can run,it is necessary to monitor the mechanical properties of the circuit breaker,which includes monitoring the breaker trip.By TLD video tracking technology ZN65-12 vacuum circuit breaker mechanical properties were measured,obtain a two-dimensional direction of travel, speed characteristic curves.The experimental results show that the error of the method used to obtain a circuit breaker stroke, speed and other parameters of not more than 1mm,compared with traditional methods of measurement can get richer information.

This chapter reviews recent development of graphene-based polymer composites. The formation of graphene oxide and graphene are a vital two dimensional (2D) material has received a lot of research interest in commercialization aspect due to its excellent electrical, thermal as well as mechanical properties at very low filler content. In this manner, utilization of graphene-based polymer composites with different polymer matrixes have been attracted increasing attention in recent years for both fundamental studies and applied research into industrial applications in many fields. Herein, novel properties of polymer (epoxy, polystyrene, and PANI) / graphene composites will be reviewed along with detailed examples drawn from the scientific literature. Keywords: Graphene-based polymer composites, thermo-mechanical properties, two dimensional (2D) materials

High modulus Poly (p-phenyleneterephalamide)(PPTA) fibers was prepared by heat drawing process, in which the fibers rearranged their structures for further improvements in their crystalline perfection, crystal line orientation. The modulus of PPTA fibers could be improved when fibers treated in an appropriate condition. The influences of heat treating time on the structures of the fibers and their properties were investigated by using two-dimensional wide-angle scattering (WAXS).

Polymer materials are ubiquitous in daily life. While polymers are often convenient and helpful, their properties often obscure the fire hazards they may pose. Therefore, it is of great significance in terms of safety to study the flame retardant properties of polymers while still maintaining their optimal performance. Current literature shows that although traditional flame retardants can satisfy the requirements of polymer flame retardancy, due to increases in product requirements in industry, including requirements for durability, mechanical properties, and environmental friendliness, it is imperative to develop a new generation of flame retardants. In recent years, the preparation of modified two-dimensional nanomaterials as flame retardants has attracted wide attention in the field. Due to their unique layered structures, two-dimensional nanomaterials can generally improve the mechanical properties of polymers via uniform dispersion, and they can form effective physical barriers in a matrix to improve the thermal stability of polymers. For polymer applications in specialized fields, different two-dimensional nanomaterials have potential conductivity, high thermal conductivity, catalytic activity, and antiultraviolet abilities, which can meet the flame retardant requirements of polymers and allow their use in specific applications. In this review, the current research status of two-dimensional nanomaterials as flame retardants is discussed, as well as a mechanism of how they can be applied for reducing the flammability of polymers.
