...Sandeep Singh A hierarchical multiscale finite element model is employed to investigate the effect of dihedral energy term on the numerical simulation of two-dimensional materials. The numerical examples of the carbon nanotubes and graphene sheets are studied employing a refined constitutive model...

.... Assoc. Editor: Massimo Ruzzene. 05 12 2011 20 02 2013 In the current study, the torsional vibration of carbon nanotubes is examined using the strain gradient theory and molecular dynamic simulations. The model developed based on this gradient theory enables us to interpret size...

...R. Ansari; B. Motevalli Nested carbon nanotubes exhibit telescopic oscillatory motion with frequencies in the gigahertz range. In this paper, our previously proposed semi-analytical expression for the interaction force between two concentric carbon nanotubes is used to solve the equation of motion...

...R. L. Dai; W. H. Liao In this research, carbon nanotube (CNT) composite with epoxy resin is fabricated. The dynamic properties of the nanotube composites are evaluated. A testing apparatus for obtaining dynamic properties of composites is set up, and measurement procedures are given. In particular...
