AI Thread Summary
To model carbon nanotubes (CNTs) in ABAQUS, the user has generated the XYZ coordinates of the atoms but is facing challenges with importing them into the software. There is a need for guidance on the correct import process for these coordinates in ABAQUS. Additionally, there are concerns about the suitability of CNTs for constructing a non-ferrous electromagnet for a magnetic field generator, particularly regarding their ability to hold a magnetic field. The discussion highlights both the technical challenges of modeling CNTs and the practical applications in electromagnetic projects. Seeking advice from colleagues on these topics is emphasized.

Dear Colleagues
I want to start some research on the Carbon nano - tubes.
In the beginning I need to model a CNT in the ABAQUS.
I wrote a code for generating the xyz Coordinates of the atoms in a CNT.
The problem is that I can not import them in abaqus.
Does anyone has an Idea ?

Thanks in advance

Dear Colleagues
I'm wanting to start some research with carbon Nano - tubes in building a non-Ferris electro- magnet for a
magnetic field generator but I'm worried that the Nano tubes I would need to start this project will not hold a field any thought's
 

Thread 'Bubble formation in 4 mm gap vessel'

How did you find PF?: Via Google search Hi, I have a vessel I 3D printed to investigate single bubble rise. The vessel has a 4 mm gap separated by acrylic panels. This is essentially my viewing chamber where I can record the bubble motion. The vessel is open to atmosphere. The bubble generation mechanism is composed of a syringe pump and glass capillary tube (Internal Diameter of 0.45 mm). I connect a 1/4” air line hose from the syringe to the capillary The bubble is formed at the tip...

Thread 'Physics of Stretch: What pressure does a band apply on a cylinder?'

Scenario 1 (figure 1) A continuous loop of elastic material is stretched around two metal bars. The top bar is attached to a load cell that reads force. The lower bar can be moved downwards to stretch the elastic material. The lower bar is moved downwards until the two bars are 1190mm apart, stretching the elastic material. The bars are 5mm thick, so the total internal loop length is 1200mm (1190mm + 5mm + 5mm). At this level of stretch, the load cell reads 45N tensile force. Key numbers...

Thread 'Find 3D Printer & Software Resources for Prototype Creation'

I'd like to create a thread with links to 3-D Printer resources, including printers and software package suggestions. My motivations are selfish, as I have a 3-D printed project that I'm working on, and I'd like to buy a simple printer and use low cost software to make the first prototype. There are some previous threads about 3-D printing like this: https://www.physicsforums.com/threads/are-3d-printers-easy-to-use-yet.917489/ but none that address the overall topic (unless I've missed...
