Diameter-Change-Induced Transition in Buckling Modes of Defective Zigzag Carbon Nanotubes

In general, the insertion of Stone-Wales (SW) defects into single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) reduces the buckling resistance of SWNTs under axial compression. The magnitude of reduction is more noticeable in zigzag-type SWNTs than armchair- or chiral-type SWNTs; however, the relation between th...
