Abstract

Natural rubber used in wave energy converters requires higher fatigue life and better energy harvesting efficiency to make it inexpensive compared to other renewable energy resources. Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were extensively used to enhance the mechanical properties of natural rubber, however, its p...
