Buckling of Ge nanowires under uniaxial compression
Molecular dynamics simulations are performed to investigate the buckling properties of [100]-, [110]-, [111]-, and [112]-oriented single-crystalline germanium nanowires under uniaxial compression. The effects of simulation temperature, strain rate, and wire length on the buckling behaviour are investigated. The simulation results indicate that critical load clearly decreases with increasing tem...
متن کاملBuckling of Double-walled Carbon Nanotubes
This paper is concerned with the buckling of double-walled carbon nanotubes (DWCNTs) under axial load. The DWCNTs are modelled as two cylindrical shells, one shell nested in the other and Winkler springs are introduced to connect them in order to simulate the van der Waals forces between the two nanotubes. By using the Donnell thin shell theory, we derive the governing equations for the bucklin...
متن کاملNano-plasticity of Single-Wall Carbon Nanotubes under Uniaxial Compression
Nano-plasticity of thin single-wall carbon nanotubes under uniaxial compression is investigated through generalized tight-binding molecular dynamics (GTBMD) and ab-initio electronic structure methods. A novel mechanism of nano-plasticity of carbon nanotubes under uniaxial compression is observed in which bonding geometry collapses from a graphitic (sp 2) to a localized diamond like (sp 3) recon...
متن کاملBuckling of multiwalled carbon nanotubes under axial compression
Buckling of single-walled and multiwalled carbon nanotubes SWNTs and MWNTs, respectively due to axial compressive loads has been studied by molecular mechanics simulations, and results compared with those from the analysis of equivalent continuum structures using Euler buckling theory and the finite element method. It is found that a MWNT of large aspect ratio length/diameter buckles as a colum...
متن کاملEffective coarse-grained simulations of super-thick multi-walled carbon nanotubes under torsion
Under torsion and beyond the buckling point, multi-walled carbon nanotubes MWCNTs develop a periodic wave-like rippling morphology. Here, we show that torsional rippling deformations can be accurately described by a simple sinusoidal shape function. Combining this observation with the geometry optimization, we develop an effective coarse-grained model that reproduces the complex nonlinear mecha...
