A matrix method is presented for the calculation of bar forces in a single layer lattice cylinder composed of regular ring polygons and symmetrically arranged bracing bars. Substantial differences occur between the stress distribution in the lattice structure and that of the membrane cylinder under the same load. Therefore, a membrane cylinder cannot be considered as a replacement continuum for the lattice construction. The purpose of the paper is to draw attention to the danger in the utilisation, without due caution, of this analogy.

The introduction of charges leads to a smaller aggregate size and lower density; moreover, crossed-cylindrical structures are produced in thicker thin films.

A simplified finite element has been developed for modeling the added mass and inertial coupling arising when clusters of cylinders vibrate in a quiescent fluid. The element, which is based on two-dimensional potential flow theory, directly couples two adjacent beam elements representing portions of the adjacent cylindrical structures. The primary advantage of this approach over existing methods is that it does not require the discretization of the surrounding fluid and, therefore, is computationally much more efficient. The fundamental frequencies of tube bundles of various pitch ratios have been predicted using this method and compared with experimental data. Generally, the agreement is good, especially for the bandwidth of fluid coupled natural frequencies. The transient response of tube bundles is also examined using time integration of the finite element model. The beating phenomenon and time decay characteristics exhibited by the experimental bundles under single-tube excitation are well predicted and valuable insights are gained into the measurement of damping in tube bundles.

Complex forms of nitrogen are of interest for their potential as high-energy materials, but many all-nitrogen systems lack the stability for practical high-energy applications. Inclusion of carbon atoms in an otherwise all-nitrogen structure can increase stability. Nitrogen cages are known for energetically preferring cylindrical structures with triangular endcaps, but carbon cages prefer the pentagon-hexagon structure of the fullerenes. Previous calculations on N22C2have shown that carbon inclusion narrows the gap between triangular and fullerene-like structures. In the current study, three isomers of N24are used as frameworks for carbon substitution. Theoretical calculations are carried out on isomers of N20C4, N18C6, and N16C8, with the goal of determining what level of carbon substitution causes the carbon fullerene-like structures to become energetically preferred.
