Abstract: In this study, we propose a new nanocomputer component. We investigate the mechanics of a multiwalled carbon nanotube, comprising two symmetrically placed inner tubes and a moveable tube of radius intermediate to the larger ...

Abstract: In this paper, we investigate methane encapsulation in five spherical fullerenes C60,C240,C540,C960, and C1500. We exploit the 6–12 LennardJones potential function and the continuum approximation to model the surface ...
