| dc.description.abstract | This study investigates the vibrational characteristics of multi-layered graphene sheets with variable thickness (VTGSs) by using molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. It is aimed to determine how the natural frequencies and vibration damping ratios of variable-thickness graphene change with respect to temperature. Atomistic models for six distinct geometries (1L, 3LT, 3LTB, 5LT, 5LTB, and 9LTB) were generated to analyze the influence of structural design and temperature on their natural frequencies. The simulations were performed using the Large-Scale Atomic/Molecular Massively Parallel Simulator (LAMMPS) with an AIREBO potential to represent interatomic carbon interactions. Natural frequencies of all atomistic models were extracted by applying the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) method to the Velocity Autocorrelation Function (VACF) data obtained from the simulations. In addition, the analysis was conducted at three different temperatures: 250 K, 300 K, and 350 K. Key findings reveal that an increase in the number of graphene layers results in a decrease in the fundamental natural frequency due to the increased mass of the structure. Moreover, it was noted that natural frequencies decrease with increasing temperature. It is attributed to the reduction in structural rigidity at higher thermal energies. These results provide critical insights into how geometric and thermal variations affect the dynamic behavior of complex multi-layered graphene structures. | |
