dc.description.abstract | Wide-ranging applications of integrated stretchable electronics, including sensors, actuators,energy harvesting, etc., are made possible by expeditious advancements in design and mate-
rials. Nanomesh structures brought a significant development in this field showing excellent
transparency, lower stiffness, and high stretchability. This thesis studies the mechanical
properties of hexagonal nanomesh structures made of arc-shaped serpentine traces. Theo-
retical and finite element models are developed to investigate the displacement, maximum
strain, axial stiffness, stretching rigidity, effective modulus, and stretchability of the hexag-
onal nanomesh structures for different thicknesses and arc-angles of the traces. The findings
of the analytical process appear to be matched very well with the finite element analysis
results. As a result, these verified theoretical formulations can be used to have practical
instructions for constructing the nanomesh structures to achieve very higher stretchability
and mechanical qualities, which are highly desirable properties in manufacturing wearable
electronics and bio-mimetic structures. | |
