Mathematical Modelling for Joining Boron Nitride Graphene with Other BN Nanostructures

الملخص EN

Boron nitride (BN) nanomaterials such as boron nitride graphenes, boron nitride nanotubes, and boron nitride nanocones are attracting attention among the most promising nanomaterials due to their physical, chemical, and electronic properties when compared to other nanomaterials.

BN nanomaterials suggest many exciting potential applications in various fields.

Joining between BN nanostructures gives new enhanced structures with outstanding properties and potential applications for design of probes for scanning tunnelling microscopy and other nanoscale devices.

This paper uses calculus of variations to model the joining between BN graphene with other BN nanostructures: BNNTs and BNNCs.

Furthermore, during the joining between these BN nanostructures, this research examines two models which are depending on the curvature of the join profile.

For the first case, Model I refers to when the join profile only includes positive curvature where for the second case, Model II is considered for both positive and negative curvatures.

Thus, the purpose of this research is to formulate the basic underlying structure to present simple models based on joining BN graphene to other BN nanostructures.
