Help finding some papers on carbon nanotubes

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on a university student's experience at the University of Puerto Rico, where they are starting research on growing carbon nanotubes using the Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) process. The student is seeking access to scientific papers and journals to gather information on this widely used technique. They express frustration over their university library's limited access to necessary journals, noting that many universities typically provide access to resources like Science Direct. A moderator suggests using Google Scholar as a valuable tool for beginners to find relevant articles and research papers.

Let me explain my situation. Recently I was admitted to a material science laboratory at my university (University of Puerto Rico). We are going to try to grow carbon nanotubes by the Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) process. My first step is to get information on the technique (wich is currently frequently used) by finding some papers from scientific journals. The problem is that the library here has some journals, but not all of them. Most universities have access to journal retrieving utilities, like Science Direct, but no luck in my university.

Excuse me if I posted in the wrong forum. I just though this is the one more visited.

Thread '1:1 versus 2:1 Mechanical Advantage debate'

The rope is tied into the person (the load of 200 pounds) and the rope goes up from the person to a fixed pulley and back down to his hands. He hauls the rope to suspend himself in the air. What is the mechanical advantage of the system? The person will indeed only have to lift half of his body weight (roughly 100 pounds) because he now lessened the load by that same amount. This APPEARS to be a 2:1 because he can hold himself with half the force, but my question is: is that mechanical...

Thread 'Newton's first law?'

Some physics textbook writer told me that Newton's first law applies only on bodies that feel no interactions at all. He said that if a body is on rest or moves in constant velocity, there is no external force acting on it. But I have heard another form of the law that says the net force acting on a body must be zero. This means there is interactions involved after all. So which one is correct?

Thread 'Beam on an inclined plane'

Hello! I have a question regarding a beam on an inclined plane. I was considering a beam resting on two supports attached to an inclined plane. I was almost sure that the lower support must be more loaded. My imagination about this problem is shown in the picture below. Here is how I wrote the condition of equilibrium forces: $$ \begin{cases} F_{g\parallel}=F_{t1}+F_{t2}, \\ F_{g\perp}=F_{r1}+F_{r2} \end{cases}. $$ On the other hand...
