Abstract: This paper deals with the double curvature bending of variable arc-length elasticas under two applied moments at fixed support locations. One end of the elastica is held while the other end ...

Abstract: In this paper, a more refined pressure distribution expression is derived to describe the van der Waals (vdW) interaction between any two tubes of a multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNT). Based ...

Abstract: This paper employs the atomic-scale finite element method (AFEM) to study critical strain of axial buckling for carbon nanotubes (CNTs). Brenner et al. “second-generation” empirical potential is ...
