Abstract :
This article deals with the effects of internal moving fluid on free vibration and structural instability of carbon nanotube (CNT) conveying fluid. CNT conveying fluid is an elastic hollow tube conveying fluid of mass density M and mean flow velocity V and it does not study how the wall-fluid interaction and the viscosity of fluid affect the mean flow velocity.
