The Controllable Mechanical Properties of Coiled Carbon Nanotubes with Stone–Wales and Vacancy Defects

Coiled carbon nanotubes (CCNTs) as a promising nanometer scale spring are investigated for the effect of the defects on the tensile mechanical properties of CCNTs by using molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. Six samples of defective CCNTs are constructed by introducing the defects in the different...
