Temperature, defect and size effect on the elastic properties of imperfectly straight carbon nanotubes by using molecular dynamics simulation
The mechanical characteristics of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) with an axial curvature of single and double bents were studied in this work via molecular dynamics simulation method. SWCNTs when synthesized in laboratory conditions are seldom perfectly straight, and exhibit one or several...
